"Corporations Act 2001 s 208 related-party financial benefit approval rule"
Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) s 208 generally requires member approval for a public company or controlled entity to give a financial benefit to a related party, unless an exception in ss 210-216 applies.
This is a human-established fact, not a universal axiom. It is true within CTH as enacted by Federal Register of Legislation.

Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) s 208 provides that, for a public company or an entity it controls to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must obtain approval of the public company members under ss 217-227 and give the benefit within 15 months after approval, or the benefit must fall within an exception in ss 210-216. If a contract to give the benefit was itself approved as a financial benefit and made within the statutory timing or conditional on approval, approval for giving the benefit is taken to have been given.
