Question: When the rules included in the consolidated rules would have already been previously accepted at General Meetings, do consolidated rules need to be adopted at a general meeting of all owners?
Answer: Certainly my interpretation of the Act is yes, rules do need to be registered
Well, certainly my interpretation of the Act is yes, they do need to be registered. Although if you haven’t formally adopted the default rules or adopted any alternate rules by your second AGM after the first of November, the new default rules contained within the regulation will automatically apply. I still believe there is a requirement to register the default rules for a number of reasons. The numbering has changed and the content of the rules themselves has been amended. If you don’t register something that you’ve put the time in to develop yourselves, you will only have the Default Rules from the Act available to the Owners Corporation and nothing customised to your developments individual circumstances.
