Relevant notes from the explanatory memorandum
143. This section, based on article 9 of the Charity Commission of England and Wales’ Charitable Companies: Model Articles of Association (published January 2017), provides that each member of a House of the Parliament must act in the best interests of Urabba Parks and not for any private benefit. Paragraph (1)(c) also provides the member may not be present when there is a potential conflict of interest, however subsection (2) allows for the member to vote if leave is granted in circumstances where the conflict of interest is not of a financial nature. This section is important to Urabba Parks meeting ACNC Governance Standard 5, which requires responsible entities of charities to act in the best interest of the charity and in a way that doesn't endanger its work.
