Relevant notes from the explanatory memorandum
218. Subsection (1) provides for a Gift Revenue Fund which consists of amounts held as gift funds . This provision is to ensure that gift funds are only applied for purposes for which the gift fund is established.
219. Subsection (2) provides that any part of a public fund , except in the case of winding-up of the fund, may only be voluntarily applied by Urabba Parks with the approval of the Visitatorial Commission a body consisting of at least 3 members who are also qualified to occupy a visitatorial place (category V) )under section 102. This provision ensures that the public participate in the management of the public fund, which is essential to the continuing endorsement of the public fund to receive tax deductible donations.
220. Subsection (3) provides Urabba Parks may make a charity distribution to full members of the public fund upon winding up of the fund. There is also a note confirming the application of subsection 92(1) in relation to the charity distribution; under that provision the restrictions that apply to public funds shall apply to the charity distribution from the fund. Therefore, while full members will be able to determine what charities will receive the proceeds of the fund on winding-up, the members will only be able to nominate Deductible Gift Recipients within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
- * subsection 4(1) defines a gift fund as a fund maintained under section 30.130 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
