Regulation 17 Provision for entrenchment: statement of complianceI1

This regulation applies where a CIO’s constitution contains provision for entrenchment.

If the CIO amends its constitution, it must send a statement of compliance to the Commission with the documents that it is required to send to the Commission by section 227(1) of the 2011 Act.

The Commission may rely on the statement of compliance as sufficient evidence of the matters stated in it.

In this regulation “statement of compliance” means a statement certifying that the amendment has been made in accordance with the provision for entrenchment.
