(b) be incorporated with a name that, in the opinion of the Registrar, is too like a particular reserved name. | ||
(2) During the specified period and any extension under section 28 (9) of that period, a company shall neither— | ||
(a) change its name to a particular reserved name (unless it is the company in whose favour the name has been reserved); nor | ||
(b) change its name to a name that, in the opinion of the Registrar, is too like a particular reserved name. | ||
(3) If an application for the incorporation of a company with a name that has been reserved under section 28 is received by the Registrar during the specified period (or any extension of it granted under section 28 (9)) from the person in whose favour the name has been so reserved, the fee payable to the Registrar in respect of that incorporation shall be reduced by an amount equal to the amount of the fee paid under section 28 (2) in respect of the reservation of that name. | ||
(4) In this section “reserved” and “specified period” have the same meaning as they have in section 28 . |
