Illustration for Integrity Sport and Recreation Act 2023

The Integrity Sport and Recreation Commission is now set up. You can think of it as a group that helps keep sport and recreation fair and honest in New Zealand. The Commission is a Crown entity, which means it is an organisation that works for the government.

The Commission has to follow the rules set out in the Crown Entities Act 2004, except when this Act says something different. This means that the Commission will usually do things the way the Crown Entities Act says, but sometimes this Act will have special rules that the Commission has to follow instead. You can find out more about what this means by looking at the Crown Entities Act 2004.
