Compliance program 2011-12

Promoting good governance

We provide organisations with assistance to manage their taxation and superannuation obligations and safeguard their reputations.

Regular changeover of office bearers and reliance on volunteers can make compliance difficult in this sector. Having good governance practices helps organisations identify and manage tax compliance risks and other risks that may affect their reputations and how they work. We have co-designed with the sector a new self-governance tool, due for release this year. The tool will help these organisations understand and meet their tax and superannuation responsibilities.
