Relevant notes from the Explanatory Memorandum[edit | edit source]

317. Subsection (1) provides that Parliament may make, revoke and alter corporate plans and corporate policies under the subsection.

318. Subsection (2) provides that until Parliament otherwise provides, the Manager‑General in Council may make, revoke and alter corporate policies the Parliament may make under this Chapter. This allows the Manager‑General in Council to make and update polices under this Chapter as required under Australian law (such as the privacy policy and whistleblowing policy) from the establishment of jurisdiction without the requirement to go through the internal legislative process.

319. Subsection (3) provides that Urabba Parks and the jurisdictional divisions have responsibilities to ensure the compliance of entities within its jurisdiction with any law, its responsibilities under this Chapter (particularly under the Urabba Parks Bill of Rights in Part 2 of Chapter 9), and the governance standards (if the entity is a charity). In order to ensure the effectiveness of these laws ensuring compliance, subsection (4) provides that a law is not made under this Chapter because of falling in subsection (3).
