Who Are Responsible People?

These are the people who help govern your charity. They’re legally in charge and need to act in the best interests of your group. You might also know them as:

• Board Members
• Committee Members
• Directors

You must list at least 3 Responsible People when applying to the ACNC.

Support to Choose and Prepare

You don’t have to know everything yet. We’ll provide:

• 🧠 A plain-language summary of legal duties
• 📝 A Responsible People register template
• 📄 A guided onboarding pack (coming soon)

You’ll need your Responsible People’s names and contact details when applying to the ACNC.

What's Next

Once you’ve confirmed your Responsible People, you can move on to getting a Tax File Number (TFN) or applying to register with the ACNC.
