Appointment of auditors: words indicating 'other than a retiring auditor' are not required in notices or resolutions for valid appointment. The departmental view is that the phrases 'other than a retiring auditor' and 'instead of him' are not mandatory in the special notice or AGM resolution for appointing a new auditor; reappointment of a retiring auditor is not automatic and requires a specific resolution, and absence of such reappointment ends the retiring auditor's term, so proposing or appointing another person without those words is sufficient for statutory compliance.
