In this edition, ACNC Commissioner the Hon Dr Gary Johns discusses the annual Charity Law Association of Australia and New Zealand (CLAANZ) Conference and ACNC Regulators Day, 'double defaulter' charities, overdue Annual Information Statements, Scams Awareness Week and more. 

'Double defaulter' charities issued with a Notice of Intention to Revoke

Last week, more than 2,000 ‘double defaulter’ charities received a notice advising that their charity registration would be revoked if they failed to submit their overdue Annual Information Statements by 26 August 2019.

If your charity received one of these notices, or you are unsure if your charity is up-to-date with its ACNC reporting obligations, check the ACNC Charity Register and then submit any outstanding reporting as soon as possible.
