Breakfast Business with Enterprise Ireland on Newstalk.
Directors and senior officials with a company must currently publish their usual residential address with the company's registration office.
But the government is worried that that may open the senior executives to abuse or even fraud.
And that's why it is consulting widely to see if the Companies Act needs to be changed to provide the public with a contact address in Ireland while keeping the residential details on file with the CRO.
But will that enable potential wrongdoing to be hidden from the public?
Niamh Smith is the Minister of State at the Department of Enterprise with special responsibility for trade promotion, artificial intelligence and digital transformation.
Good morning, Minister.
Tell us a little bit more about what is currently available to the public about company directors.
And if NGOs really wanted to get in touch with these senior officers and directors, they have to go to the CRO to do that?
Now, wearing your digital transformation hat, why can't we set up a company fully digitally and operate it fully digitally and close it down, if necessary, fully digitally?
Why do we need any paperwork?
Minister, thank you very much for joining us.
That's Niamh Smith, the Minister of State at the Department of Enterprise with special responsibility for trade promotion, AI and digital transformation.
Back in a moment.
Breakfast Business with Enterprise Ireland on Newstalk.
Good morning and welcome to Breakfast Business.
And thank you, as ever, to Shane Beattie.
It is Friday, the 5th of December at 6.30.
Coming up on today's show, we'll be talking to John Fingleton, the Irishman who is shaking up infrastructure development in Britain, and see what we can learn here.
And we'll be looking at the planned changes to the Companies Act and all the markets as usual.
