ERS Schemes within Group of companies

If shares are issued at group level, which company is responsible to register the ERS and fulfil the annual reporting obligation? Would it be the parent company at consolidated level? or do the individual members of the group, which have the employees who have subscribed to the shares, need to register the schemes and consequently submit the annual returns? If a group level filing has already been submitted, are the individual members then required to still report, even if it is the same scheme? or will the group level filing suffice?
