Shares: general provisions.
|
28.—(1) All shares in a credit union shall be of £1 denomination and, subject to the rules of the credit union, may be subscribed for either in full or by periodical or other subscriptions, but no share shall be allotted to a member until it has been fully paid in cash.
|
| |
(5) Notwithstanding subsection (1), whenever its board of directors so recommends, a credit union may apply any sum standing to the credit of its reserves (other than the statutory reserve) to the payment up of shares, and may issue the shares to members as fully paid-up bonus shares in the proportions to which the members would have been entitled if the sum concerned had been distributed by way of dividend.
