ABOUT
THE IRISH
COB SOCIETY (ICS)
STUD BOOK MEMBERS
As the Irish Cob Society
(ICS) is now promoted as a breeding organization
and no as The Irish Cob Society Ltd (a "members club"
offering limited liability to members), anyone who
registers an Irish Cob or Irish Cob Part Bred in an ICS Stud
Book in Ireland from 1st January 2008 automatically becomes made an ICS Stud Book
Member. ICS Stud Book members
ARE NOT members of the
ICS aquired legal personality (the limited liability company - Ltd)
which means that ICS Stud Book members cannot be held liable
should the aquired legal personality (the limited company -
Ltd) be wound up for any reason. This is veiwed as the
ultimate protection offered to ICS Stud Book breeders.
ICS Stud Book members can train to become ICS inspectors and
judges and can establish ICS Stud Book committees for the
purpose of arranging for shows and events to be held for
Irish Cobs and Irish Cob Part Breds. ICS has
planned to hold an annual seminar for ICS Stud Book members
and those interested in becoming ICS Stud Book members which
will be a valuable opportuninty for breeders to meet up,
learn more about their breed, have "a say", give ideas and
form ICS event committees etc.
ABOUT
THE IRISH COB SOCIETY (ICS)
The Irish Cob Society
(ICS) was established and approved as a breeding
organization in Ireland in 1998, to
maintain the Stud Book of the Origin of the Breed for Irish
Cobs.
ICS
DECISION TO DROP LIMITED (LTD) FROM GENERAL USE
Because from 2002 the Irish Cob Society
offered "open membership" the Irish Cob Society
(ICS) chose to
acquire a legal
personality which would protect it's members by ensuring
them
LIMITED LIABILITY (Ltd - limited risk).
The name the Irish Cob Society, with Limited (Ltd) added,
was promoted by ICS to show members and potential members
that they would be protected (had limited liability of £1)
should the company be wound up for any reason.
From 1st January 2008 the
Irish Cob Society (ICS) decided that the Irish Cob Society
would no longer offer membership of
the aquired legal personality (the limited
company - Ltd), on an "open"
basis and that the Irish Cob Society (ICS) would no longer
be promote as a "member
club", but once again as the breeding organization
THE IRISH COB SOCIETY (ICS) originally
established and approved in 1998 in Ireland to maintain the
Stud Book of the Origin of the Breed for Irish Cobs.
That being the case, ICS decided (in accordance with company
law) that membership of the
aquired legal personality (the limited company - Ltd)
would no longer be on an "open" basis and that
the Directors would in future decide who could be members. The Irish Cob Society (ICS) decided that it
would no longer be called (referred to as), or use it's
aquired legal personality
title The Irish Cob Society Ltd
(ICS Ltd) except in areas concerning legal matters.
