Registered Clubs Act 1976 (NSW)

Declare gifts/remuneration ≥ $500 from affiliated bodies (s.41E)

NSW · ILGASupports

A director or top executive must declare any gift, hospitality, discount, or remuneration valued at $500 or more received from an affiliated body of the club. An affiliated body is a related body corporate or any body that obtained a grant/subsidy from the club within the preceding 12 months. The ClubsNSW Code of Practice §37 separately requires the same disclosure at a $1,000 threshold — the Act's $500 floor is the regulatory minimum.

Consequence of breach

What can go wrong.

Failure to disclose can attract ILGA disciplinary action under Part 6A and may also be a breach of the ClubsNSW Code of Practice (separate complaint pathway for ClubsNSW-member venues).

Consequences are summarised from the underlying legislation. Specific penalties depend on the breach pattern, prior history, and the regulator's enforcement posture. Talk to a liquor and gaming lawyer for a definitive view of your venue's exposure.
