That's exactly the kind of "this wasn't what the law intended but it's legal until they realise the loophole so let's do it" mentality which all these dodgy tax schemes are based on...
If someone is your Company Secretary but has no part in running the company, then their are either naive or foolish - the company secretary can be criminally liable for defaults by the company (eg. failure to update the registers, failure to complete the company return to Companies House), so if they aren't aware of that, then you probably have bigger company issues to resolve than whether they can have a company phone or not.

Get a company phone for 50 quid and stick a 8 quid a month sim only card in it.
I must've missed the part why have two £40 contracts?

I got a speck candy shell case for it, I don't get the phone till Monday, I wanted something that would be proud of the lens as people complain that it gets roughed up on tables. Want to try and protect this phone, I constantly drop them.
