Get ready for July 2024 changes

Changes to how you resolve internal disputes and disclose remuneration to your members in your incorporated association will begin on 1 July 2024.
You should understand how they’ll affect your association and what you need to do now to get ready.

What’s changing?

From 1 July 2024, incorporated associations must:
  • disclose remuneration paid and any benefits given to committee members, senior staff and their relatives at their Annual General Meeting

  • follow the grievance procedure in the model rules to resolve disputes or include a compliant grievance procedure in their own rules.

These changes will help improve transparency and accountability in your association.  

What do you need to do now?

If you wish to create a grievance procedure for use from 1 July 2024, you should submit your amended constitution to the Office of Fair Trading by 30 April 2024 to allow sufficient time for us to review and register it.
Find out how to create a compliant grievance procedure and change your association’s constitution

You won’t need to make any changes to your constitution if you:

  • already have a compliant grievance procedure in your constitution

  • wish to follow the model rules’ grievance procedure – it will automatically apply.
