If a document is admissible in evidence, then an electronic image of that document may be treated as secondary evidence in the same manner as a photocopy or a microfiche image.
It will be subject to the provisions regarding authentication contained in the Civil Evidence Act 1995 in England and Wales and the Civil Evidence Act (Scotland) 1988 in Scotland.
Under the Companies Act 1985 however, Companies House can also provide a certified copy of a document. This copy is then admissible in evidence as of equal validity with the original document.
