Only "Entities" Can Be Registered
To be registered you must be an "entity". An entity means:
- an individual or natural person;
- a "body corporate". This includes a company, building society, credit union, trade union, statutory body, municipal council, incorporated association, and certain governing bodies of various religious institutions;
- a "corporation sole". This is a corporation consisting of one person and that person's successors to a particular position, eg a bishopric;
- a "body politic", i.e. a government. Government departments are technically not entities but can be separately registered;
- a partnership;
- any other unincorporated association or body, e.g. charities or clubs;
- a trust; or
- a superannuation fund.
