FAQs
A company secretary is responsible for helping a company meet its legal and regulatory obligations, including maintaining statutory records, managing communications with ASIC and overseeing corporate governance practices. Public companies must appoint at least one company secretary, while for proprietary companies the role is optional.
Allied Legal’s company secretarial services take these duties off your plate, keeping your records accurate and your filings on time so you can focus on running the business.
Companies are required by law to keep statutory registers, such as registers of members and officeholders, and these must be kept up to date to avoid penalties. Accurate records also give a clear picture of the company’s structure and operations.
Allied Legal maintains your statutory registers and keeps them current, so your records stand up to scrutiny from regulators, investors and buyers.
ASIC compliance involves completing your company’s annual review, notifying ASIC of changes to company details and making any other required lodgements accurately and on time.
Allied Legal handles your ASIC filings and checks that every submission is accurate and lodged on time.
Meeting administration covers preparing agendas, drafting minutes and managing resolutions for board meetings, annual general meetings (AGMs) and other shareholder meetings, creating the paperwork that shows decisions were made properly.
Allied Legal runs these processes with you so your meetings are properly documented and comply with legal requirements.
A company constitution sets out the rules for how a company operates and clarifies the roles and responsibilities of directors and shareholders. A company can instead rely on the replaceable rules in the Corporations Act 2001, but a tailored constitution gives you greater clarity and control.
Allied Legal drafts and updates constitutions to fit your company’s needs and keep them compliant with the Corporations Act.
