"What societies must share at their annual meeting"

Illustration for Incorporated Societies Act 2022

You need to know what happens at the annual general meeting of a society. The committee must present some information. This includes a report on what the society did and how it worked during the last accounting period. They must also show the society's financial statements for that period. You will see some extra details too. The committee must tell you about any disclosures made under section 63, which is about disclosing interests. This includes a brief summary of what those disclosures were about. The annual report must have the information that the regulations say it must have. When the report talks about matters, it means the same as in section 62.
