Corporations Act 2001

CHAPTER 2P - LODGMENTS WITH ASIC  

SECTION 354   TELEPHONE NOTICE OF CERTAIN CHANGES  

354(1)    
ASIC may, in its discretion, accept telephone notice of a change to a particular in relation to a company or a registered scheme if:

(a) either:

(i) the change relates to a misspelling or other minor typographical error; or

(ii) the change is to a particular included on a list published by ASIC on the internet for the purposes of this section; and

(b) the notice satisfies the authentication requirements published by ASIC on the internet for the purposes of this section.

354(2)    

If ASIC accepts telephone notice of a change to a particular under subsection (1), any obligation elsewhere in this Act to lodge a prescribed form in relation to the change is satisfied by the telephone notice. However, this does not affect the company ' s or the scheme ' s liability for late lodgment fees incurred before the notice is given or continuing offences committed before that time.
