Question 1.

Sean is a minority shareholder in a public company, Soapy Plc., with standard articles of association. Soapy Plc manufactures skin and beauty products for men. It has been successful since its inception and is presently making substantial profits. Sean is concerned that the company is using materials in its manufacturing process which have been tested on animals. Sean wants the Board of Directors to adopt a policy of only using materials which have not been tested on animals. It is likely that the adoption of such a policy would increase the company's manufacturing costs. The company is due to hold its annual general meeting within the next six months.

Critically assess the ability of a shareholder to influence the agenda of a general meeting and consider if it is possible for the general meeting to affect the Board of Director's decisions
