Incorporated Societies Act
21 Dec 2015The Incorporated Societies Act 1908 has had very few amendedments since it was first established. Recently, a review was completed to modernise the statute and provide greater guidance for people who run Incorporated Societies.
The report recommends that the 1908 Act be replaced by a new statute and makes numerous recommendations for how that statute should provide better guidance for societies.

When the proposed changes come into effect, every current society will need to check that its constitution complies with the new requirements. Members that are setting up a new Incorporated Society should consider the Law Commission’s recommendations when drafting their constitution and considering their governance structure.
