| Summary |
This report forms Part 1 of a two part report on the Corporate Law Economic Reform Program (Audit Reform and Corporate Disclosure) Bill 2003. Recent instances of unacceptable or irresponsible corporate conduct trained the focus of the latest round of CLERP reforms on improving corporate governance. The Committee in this report is mainly concerned with exploring areas of the proposed legislation that attracted significant comment. Thus, this report refers only briefly to matters which drew little attention or received general approval. Overall, this report: identifies the key issues of concern raised by people who presented both written and oral evidence to the inquiry on the proposed legislation; ascertains, where necessary, whether these concerns are addressed satisfactorily in the Bill; and recommends changes to the legislation to remedy what it found to be short comings in the legislation |
