To circulate a Section 156 disclosure:

1) Log in to your Director Disclosure account using your registered email address and password.  

2) After logging in, click on the Send Disclosure button. 

3) Once you have clicked on the Send Disclosure button, a Section 156 - Circulate Disclosure window will pop up. 

4) Select the "Section 156 Disclosure" box. 

5) On the Preview Disclosure pop-up window, click on Okay, Preview to preview your disclosure. 

6) To view the distribution list, click on the Edit Distribution List button. 

7) If you wish to send the disclosure to other recipients not listed within the distribution list, enter their email addresses into the CC field.  

Select the "Save Distribution List for next circulation" box, if you wish to save the distribution list for your next circulation. 

Then, click on the Save button. 

*Please note that only those with Alternate Director, CEO, Director, Director-Chairman, & Director-Deputy Chairman appointments will be shown in the S156 Distribution List. 

8) If you wish to preview your disclosure again, click on the Eye button next to Edit Distribution List. 

9) Click on Yes, Circulate.

Understanding Automated Email Notifications

Once circulated, automated notification emails will be sent from Board.Vision  (notifications@board.vision) with the subject line:

"<Director Name> – Director’s disclosure pursuant to Section 156 of the Companies Act 1967".

Email 1 (Internal Board & Officers):

• To: All Chairmen and Directors

• CC: Company Secretary(ies), your Authorised Preparers, and any custom CC recipients added to the Distribution List.

Email 2 (For Non-Board.Vision Companies):
If you are disclosing a directorship in an external/non-Board.Vision entity, a second notification will be sent to that company's secretary:

• To: All Company Secretary(ies) of the non-Board.Vision company

• CC: Yourself (Director) and your Authorised Preparer(s).

Note: If the non-Board.Vision company’s Corporate Secretaries are already registered as Corporate Secretaries on Board.Vision, they will only receive Email 1.

Authorised Preparer Notification:

If you authorise a preparer to circulate the disclosure on your behalf, they will receive an email titled:

"You have been authorised to circulate director's disclosure(s) for <Director's Name>"

• To: Authorised Preparer(s)

• CC: Yourself (Director)
