Review of Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission legislation

Today I received the final report from the review panel for the statutory review of the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission legislation.

I would like to thank the Chair, Mr Patrick McClure AO, and Panel members, Ms Su McCluskey, Dr Matthew Turnour and Mr Greg Hammond OAM, for their work in evaluating the performance of the legislative framework and the regulation of the not-for-profits sector.

I look forward to considering the report in detail and will consult with members of the Government before releasing it to the public and responding to its findings.

Again, I would like to thank the Panel for its work and the Australians who took the time to have their say on this important issue.
