16. Required or Authorised by or Under Law
Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)
Print 16.122 Section 168 of the Corporations Act requires companies and registered schemes to maintain a register of members and, if relevant, a register of option holders and a register of debenture holders. Section 169 of the Act requires a register of members to contain certain details, including the member?s name and address, the date on which the member?s name was entered on the register, as well as other details, such as the shares held by each member.

16.123 Under ss 173 and 174 of the Corporations Act, companies, registered schemes and persons who maintain registers on behalf of companies and registered schemes must allow anyone to inspect these registers. These sections are examples of provisions that require or authorise the disclosure of information for the purposes of the Privacy Act. It is unlikely, therefore, that compliance with the Corporations Act requirements would breach NPP 2.

16.124 Section 177 of the Corporations Act provides that it is a criminal offence to use information about a person obtained from a register to contact or send material to the person, or to disclose information obtained from a register knowing that the information is likely to be used to contact or send material to the person. An exception to that rule is where the use of the information is connected with the membership, or approved by the company.[173]
