Jordans Irish Company Secretarial Precedents contains a comprehensive set of professionally drafted precedents, minutes, statutory and practice forms for use or adaptation by the irish company secretary or his professional adviser. The precedents and forms deal with every aspect of company law and practice and are accompanied by straightforward and concise explanations of their use and application.

Since the last edition in 2004 several significant changes in irish company law have taken effect, with the enactment of irish statutes and statutory instruments every year since then, as well as the adoption of directly applicable eu regulations. This fourth edition is fully updated and includes up-to-date precedents and appendices providing relevant and practical information for both company secretaries and practitioners.
