Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission Act 2012 (Cwth)

This Division sets up a system to allow the creation of minimum external conduct standards that entities are required to meet (in order to become registered, and on an ongoing basis). These external conduct standards are to be set out in the regulations and must deal only with:

(a) matters external to Australia; or

(b) matters not external to Australia but that are closely related to, or have or will have a significant impact on, entities, things or matters external to Australia.

Compliance with the external conduct standards is a condition of entitlement to registration under paragraph 25-5(3)(b) .
