The Government has announced it will extend the start date of the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission to 1 October 2012.
The extension in the commencement of the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission will not affect the announced introduction of a general reporting framework and the establishment of a public information portal by 1 July 2013, as well as the introduction of a statutory definition of ‘charity’ by 1 July 2013.
