Answer

sec:answer-5635d998

Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) s 297 requires the financial statements and notes for a financial year to give a true and fair view of the financial position and performance of the company, registered scheme, registrable superannuation entity, or disclosing entity. If consolidated financial statements are required, the statements and notes must also give a true and fair view of the financial position and performance of the consolidated entity. Section 297 does not affect the s 296 obligation for financial reports to comply with accounting standards. Official source checked: Federal Register of Legislation, Corporations Act 2001 current text, s 297. Dogfood note: Source search for s 297 true and fair view did not surface a native Corporations Act s 297 row; it returned recent proposed meeting/remuneration topics and unrelated CCA rows.
