The APF is a company limited by guarantee and is required to meet a range of regulatory obligations.
Directors of a company limited by guarantee are subject to all of the duties and obligations for a company
as set out in the Corporations Act 2001. This includes the preparation of an audited financial report in
accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards and a Directors’ report in accordance with the
Corporations Act. There are also compliance requirements on companies limited by guarantee relating
to health and safety, equal opportunities and industrial relations. During 2013–14, no non-compliance
incidents in any of these areas were recorded. All financial, regulatory and statutory obligations have
been undertaken.
