Answer

sec:answer-ad50eded

Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) s 247A allows the Court to order inspection of books of a company or registered scheme by a member, or by another person on the member behalf, if satisfied that the applicant is acting in good faith and the inspection is for a proper purpose. A person with, seeking, or eligible for s 237 derivative-action leave may also apply, with the Court requiring good faith and a purpose connected with applying for leave or bringing or intervening in proceedings with leave. An authorised person may make copies unless the Court orders otherwise. Official source checked: Federal Register of Legislation, Corporations Act 2001 current text, s 247A. Dogfood note: Source search for s 247A did not surface a native Corporations Act s 247A row; it returned adjacent proposed Corporations topics and unrelated CCA rows.
