This Act provided for the extension of the US GAAP provision in the Companies (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2009
A regulatory impact analysis was prepared and published, in respect of the 2009 Act. That analysis showed that, in essence, the proposed amendments in relation to the use of US GAAP were facilitative rather than impositional in nature and were likely to prove of national economic benefit. As the provisions in the 2012 Act only related to the time available to companies to use this facility a regulatory impact analysis was not considered necessary in relation to the 2012 Act.
