Corporations Act 2001
If: (a) under this Act, the signature of a person is required or permitted on a document; and (b) the person signs the document in accordance with section 110A ; and (c) the person or another person submits the document for lodgement; and (d) the signature complies with any requirements relating to that lodgement under this Act or an instrument made under this Act;
ASIC or the Registrar (as the case requires) must not refuse to receive or register the document on the basis that the document has not been signed.
Note: This section does not prevent ASIC or the Registrar from refusing to receive or register the document on any other basis. For example, if the lodgement requirements mentioned in paragraph (d) (such as those under Chapter 2P ) are not met, ASIC or the Registrar may refuse to receive or register the document.
