Answer

Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) s 296 requires the financial report for a financial year to comply with accounting standards and any further requirements in the regulations. A small proprietary company report prepared in response to a shareholder direction under s 293 does not have to comply with particular accounting standards if the direction says so and the CSF shareholder paragraph in s 292(2)(c) does not apply. A small company limited by guarantee report prepared in response to a member direction under s 294A does not have to comply with particular accounting standards if the direction says so. Official source checked: Federal Register of Legislation, Corporations Act 2001 current text, s 296. Dogfood note: Source search for s 296 accounting standards compliance did not surface a native Corporations Act s 296 row; it returned recent proposed meeting/remuneration topics and unrelated CCA rows.
