Treasury Laws Amendment (Strengthening Accountability for Tax Adviser Misconduct and Other Measures) Bill 2026

Senator AYRES (New South Wales—Minister for Industry and Innovation and Minister for Science) (18:00): I suppose there are two answers to the proposition that Senator Faruqi just put to me. One is to refer to the framework that I outlined at the beginning. That is the way that these questions in relation to all organisations that the ACNC has responsibility for are managed.

The second is to say that the Australian government's approach in relation to the broader question has been very clear. I don't really understand the relationship that you're trying to draw between the purposes of this piece of legislation, which is about DGR status and a whole range of things. If there are individual matters which you want to pursue with the ACNC, there are multiple fora for you to do that in.
