Summary

Amends the

Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009
to: expand the circumstances in which a person may be automatically disqualified from office and make it a criminal offence for a person who is disqualified from holding office in a registered organisation to continue to hold office or act in a manner that would significantly influence the organisation; provide for a disqualification scheme that allows the Federal Court to disqualify an official from holding office in certain circumstances; expand the grounds for the cancellation of registration of organisations by the Federal Court; and enable the Federal Court to make orders instead of cancellation of registration.
