Corporations (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander) Act 2006

CHAPTER 11 - EXTERNAL ADMINISTRATION  

PART 11-6 - INSOLVENT TRADING AND CREDITOR-DEFEATING DISPOSITIONS  

Division 531 - Insolvent trading and creditor-defeating dispositions  

SECTION 531-1   APPLYING CORPORATIONS ACT INSOLVENT TRADING AND CREDITOR-DEFEATING DISPOSITION PROVISIONS TO ABORIGINAL AND TORRES STRAIT ISLANDER CORPORATIONS  

531-1(1)    


The Corporations Act insolvent trading and creditor-defeating disposition provisions apply to an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander corporation as if the following substitutions were made:


Substitutions to be made
Item For a reference to … substitute a reference to …
1 a company an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander corporation
2 a dividend any distribution by the corporation to its members (whether of capital or income)
3 civil penalty order civil penalty order (within the meaning of this Act)
4 civil penalty provision civil penalty provision (within the meaning of this Act)

Note:

Although section 526-35 applies the provisions of Part 5.7B to the winding up of an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander corporation, the insolvent trading and creditor-defeating disposition provisions are capable of applying independently of there being a winding up. This section ensures, for example, that a director of an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander corporation commits an offence if the corporation trades while insolvent (regardless of whether winding up proceedings are ever commenced).


531-1(2)    
This section has effect without limiting section 526-35 .

531-1(3)
