ASSOCIATIONS INCORPORATION REFORM ACT 2012 - SECT 12

Application for incorporation under this Act

    (1)     A registrable body that is eligible under section 11(1) to do so may apply to the Registrar for the incorporation of the body under this Act.

    (2)     The application must be in the approved form and include—

        (a)     the name of the proposed incorporated association; and

        (b)     the name, address and contact telephone number and email address (if available) of the person nominated to be the first secretary of the proposed incorporated association; and

        (c)     the prescribed particulars.

S. 12(3) substituted by No. 33/2015 s. 5.

    (3)     The application must—

        (a)     state the full name of the registrable body and its registration number; and

        (b)     in relation to the rules proposed to be in force on the incorporation of the body under this Act—

              (i)     be accompanied by a copy of those rules; or

              (ii)     state that the body has approved the adoption of the model rules; and

        (c)     state whether the association is to be the trustee of one or more trusts and, if so, state the name of each trust; and

        (d)     be accompanied by, or make provision for the payment of, the prescribed fee (if any).

Note

If the rules approved by a registrable body vary in
any manner from the model rules (other than in particulars relating to the name, purpose or financial year of the proposed incorporated association), the rules are taken not to be model rules. Consequently, the application must comply with subsection (3)(b)(i) and, on the incorporation of the body under this Act, sections 49(3) and 49(4) do not apply to those rules.
