Dear Grace Haden,

 

I refer to your email to the Companies Office dated 7 August regarding
Milk New Zealand Investment Limited and subsequent email dated 12 August
requesting under the Official Information Act 1982 copies of all
information held by the Ministry regarding the identity of Milk New
Zealand Investment Limited, the shareholder of Milk New Zealand Holding
Limited. 

 

A representative of the Registrar of Companies made enquiries of the
authorised person for Milk New Zealand Holding Limited as to the
registered office address of its shareholding company.  The representative
was advised that the address of Suite 1, 139 Vincent Street, Auckland
Central, Auckland had been provided in error and that this address would
be corrected. 

 

The registered office address of Milk New Zealand Investment Limited has
recently been changed to Offshore Incorporations Centre, Road Town,
Tortola , British Virgin Is.

 

No further information is held about the identity of the shareholding
company.  However, the corrected registered office address identifies the
shareholding company as one incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. 

 

If you have any queries relating to this email please reply to
[1][email address]

 

Yours sincerely,

Dear Grace

 

I refer to your email of 14 August 2014 requesting, under the Official
Information Act 1982, a copy of the evidence which has been presented
which is sufficient for the Registrar of Companies to be satisfied that:

 

(1)          the application for registration has been lawfully made. i.e.
that the shareholder existed as a legal person;

(2)          Milk New Zealand Investment Limited is registered in the
British Virgin Islands, e.g. registry details which show the date of
incorporation, and who the directors and shareholders are;

(3)          It is Milk New Zealand Investment Limited (the British Virgin
Islands company) that is the shareholder of Milk New Zealand Holdings
Limited (the NZ incorporated company). 

 

As you have previously been advised in response to an earlier Official
Information Act request, the Registrar accepts at face value the majority
of documents submitted for registration in accordance with the Companies
Act 1993.  Applicants seeking to incorporate a company in New Zealand are
not required to provide as part of the application process evidence
proving the incorporation of an entity that is a proposed shareholder in a
New Zealand company.  However, the Registrar may require additional
information concerning a director or shareholder where they are overseas. 

 

In this case, the Registrar has requested and received proof of Milk New
Zealand Investment Limited’s registration in the British Virgin Islands. 
A copy of the certificate of incorporation for Milk New Zealand Investment
Limited is attached for your information. 

 

Also attached is a copy of the certificate of incumbency provided by the
company’s registered agent in the British Virgin Islands.  This
certificate shows that the company’s shareholder is a company by the name
Milk New Zealand Holding Limited.  The Registrar has been advised by the
company’s legal representatives in New Zealand that this particular
company is incorporated in Hong Kong.

 

If you have any queries relating to this email please reply to

Yours sincerely,
