Known issue: Company Change Summary
When you resign or remove a director or secretary, the Company Officer Cessations section of the Company Change Summary may be blank instead of showing the ceased officer's details. A fix is in progress.
Until the fix is released, preview the Company Change Summary before sending it. If the section is blank, download the document in Word and enter the ceased officer's details manually.
