CIPC failure to hold a Director Accountable for failing to chage his companies address on the CIPC site

On 13 February 2019 I reported a company director to them who failed to change their physical address on the CIPC records after they moved from their offices at the end of July 2019. The only director refused to supply their new address despite our attorney & us requesting same from him. They closed my complaint after they requested the company to change their address. He refusal to supply their new address as he knew that we wanted to issue summons to them. This I also explained in detail to CIPC. It is obvious that by allowing this CIPC has failed to hold the director accountable to companies act.

my email to CIPC after they closed the case reads as ffl:-

"4.9. You note that both our attorneys & head office requested their new address which they refused to supply despite having moved out of their Cape Town Office at the end of July 2019." "Note that they also failed to update their address on their website, with private property & other advertising they have. They only changed their address with CIPC after I complained to you. Is their failure to supply their new address when requested by their creditor & not changing their address with CIPC & all sites acceptable according to the CIPC rules. If they are then the CIPC rules need to be rectified."

What is the use of having rules if the director is not held accountable for failing to change their address with CIPC & refuse to supply their new address when requested by creditors. I had a creditor recently asking me if I had their new address. President Ramaphosa has requested that we must report wrong doers. What is the use of reporting if the CIPC fail to hold the director accountable.
