If the wording is clear that it restricts you to not doing anything that is competitive to the your current employer while you are working then it is reasonable. If the wording is very wide and it is not restrictive enough, then you can argue that it breaches contract law in your particular circumstances by being ridiculous unless what you want to do is competitive to your current employer. Setting a non-trading business and having to notify or ask your employer permission is in affect giving your employer notice of your departure months or even years in advance particularly if they question you on what is the purpose of the business and refuse to let you be a director, unless you give them that information. This could lead to unpleasant consequences for you in terms of unfair treatment at work.
