Assistant Treasurer David Bradbury now has one of the biggest reform agendas of the Gillard government – reshaping the regulatory relationships between the Federal government, charities and not-for-profit organisations.

The Community Council for Australia (CCA) today welcomed the announcement that legislation to establish the Australian Charities and Not-for-profit Commission (ACNC) will be held back until October 2012.

Recommendations

 1. NFP reform agenda

1.1 The ACNC must be enabled to operate independently and reduce the compliance burden on NFPs through more effective regulation and referral of information and powers from the many local, State and Federal bodies imposing regulatory burdens on NFPs.
