12 Chief executive to make decision about application

(1) After considering the association’s application for incorporation and any objections properly made to the application, the chief executive must—

(a) grant the application; or

(b) refuse the application.

(2) Without limiting the grounds on which the chief executive may refuse an application for incorporation, the chief executive may refuse the application if the chief executive is satisfied that the proposed rules of the association do not comply with this Act.

(3) However, the chief executive must refuse the application if the industrial registrar gives the chief executive a notice under the Industrial Relations Act 2016 , section 578K stating that the objection ground is established for the application.
