Answer

sec:answer-b3bdbe12

Verified against the current Federal Register text of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). Section 307C requires an individual auditor, or the lead auditor where an audit firm or audit company conducts the work, to give directors a written declaration about auditor independence for audits or reviews of annual or half-year financial reports and audits of sustainability reports. The declaration must either state that, to the auditor knowledge and belief, there have been no contraventions of the Act auditor-independence requirements or applicable professional conduct code, or identify the only contraventions. The declaration must be signed, timing rules apply, and specified offences are strict liability.
