(2) The general partners must, within the transitional period, deliver to the registrar a statement specifying its registered email address (which must be an appropriate email address within the meaning given by section 8H(2) of that Act (inserted by section 116(3) of this Act)). (3) The provisions mentioned in subsection (4) do not apply in respect of the limited partnership until— (a) the end of the transitional period, or (b) if earlier, the delivery of the statement mentioned in subsection (2). (4) Those provisions are— (a) section 8H of the Limited Partnerships Act 1907 (inserted by section 116(3) of this Act); (b) section 10D(2)(c) of that Act (inserted by section 126 of this Act). (5) In this section— “the registrar” has the same meaning as in the Limited Partnerships Act 1907 (see section 15 of that Act); “transitional period” means the period of 6 months beginning when section 116(2) came fully into force. (6) Failure by the general partners in a limited partnership to comply with subsection (2) is, in the absence of any evidence to the contrary, to be treated by the registrar as reasonable cause to believe that the limited partnership has been dissolved for the purposes of section 19 of the Limited Partnerships Act 1907 (registrar’s power to confirm dissolution of limited partnership) (inserted by section 141 of this Act). (7) Where the registrar proposes to rely on a failure by the general partners in the limited partnership to comply with subsection (2) as grounds for exercising the power in section 19 of the Limited Partnerships Act 1907, subsections (2) to (4) of that section (publication of warning notice) do not apply.
