The sector continues to be the target of reform, requiring organisations to be on the front foot in implementing changes. Adding to this, governance obligations which impact boards and office-holders add to the burden of compliance. This session will provide a guide to recent developments, including:

  • An update on the Commissioner’s Interpretation Statements for PBI’s and Health Promotion charities
  • Current status of the national fundraising harmonisation reforms and practical impacts
  • Increased reporting for related party transactions and Board remuneration
  • Changes to charity reporting thresholds
  • New governance obligations for aged care providers – a harbinger for the wider sector?
