Back to Clive's
home page.
Some time ago I was asked to provide a declaration of those organisations which I have an interest in, in the sense that there is a potential "conflict of interest" situation. I thought it might be better to provide the data once and for all on a web page rather than keep emailing people with changes.
This data is maintained by myself. I attempt to keep it up to date, but will not guarantee that it is correct or complete under all circumstances.
My employer is Thus plc (company number SC192666), whose ultimate holding company is Thus Group plc (SC226738). Prior to that, I was employed by Demon Internet Limited (02742764), who were taken over by them.
An asterisk following the company number indicates a Company Limited by Guarantee.
I own 20% of the issued share capital of Somerhill Leisure Limited. With that exception, I do not own more than 3% of the issued share capital of any company or control 3% or more of the voting rights of any company (from time to time I have shareholdings in publicly listed companies, or membership of mutual bodies such as insurance companies, below this limit).
My employer, and their group of companies, is a member of several bodies, including some of the above companies. As far as I am aware they do not exceed the 3% limit other than within the group.
The following might be considered interests for the purposes of some bodies (e.g. Nominet) though they are probably not of interest to most people.
I am a Permanent Member of the UK Usenet Committee, as the Demon representative.
My personal domain name is davros.org and I administer the name rossrail.co.uk. I have no personal interests in or holdings of other domain names.
My employer sells domain names as part of its business.
