Illustration for Limited Partnerships Act 2008

If you want a copy of information from a register, you can ask the Registrar for it. You will get the copy if you pay the fee, if there is one. The Registrar must give you the copy, except in certain situations described in section 57(2). When the Registrar signs a copy of information from a register, it proves that the information is correct. This signed copy is proof for all purposes that the information is in the register.
