Reforms
One reform made by the 1907 Act was to introduce explicitly a separate set of provisions for "private companies", which stood in opposition to "public companies".[1]
Subsequent developments
The whole act was repealed by section 286(1) of, and part I of the sixth schedule to, the Companies (Consolidation) Act 1908 (8 Edw. 7. c. 69).
