ACNC Replacement Consultation Dates Announced
2 July 2014 at 4:50 pm
The Federal Government has announced the dates and locations for the consultation forums for charities and Not for Profits to discuss the as yet unreleased replacement arrangements for the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission.
The Department of Social Services said an Options Paper, set to be released early July, would explain the ACNC replacement arrangements and provide options on how key functions will be transitioned to the Australian Taxation Office and Australian Securities and Investments Commission.
The Department said the consultations would run in addition to written submissions.
“The Government believes it should not impose unnecessary regulatory control over the civil sector; rather, it should work with and support the sector’s ability to self-manage, allowing organisations to focus more on their work in the community,” the Department of Social Services said.
“While the sessions will have limited capacity, interested parties are encouraged to utilise the option of submitting a written application to this consultation process.”
The department said written submissions, utilising the submission template – also to be released in early July – would be accepted until August 20.
It said a summary of stakeholder feedback will be made available on the Department’s website, following the consultation period.
