» The legal form of your organisation
The checklists in this section help you identify the legal form of your organisation, understand the differences between each type, and understand how to meet the administrative and other requirements the law imposes for each type.
The checklists guide you to information that explains, for example, the consequences for an informal, unincorporated group of becoming an incorporated society, and the administrative requirements that apply to charitable trust boards.
The checklists deal with issues such as these for each type of organisation, and also for national, regional and local structures.
