Summary

Introduced with the Treasury Laws Amendment (Improving Accountability and Member Outcomes in Superannuation Measures No. 1) Bill 2017, the bill amends the:

Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993
to require registrable superannuation licensees to have at least one-third independent directors and for the Chair of the Board of directors to be one of these independent directors; and
Governance of Australian Government Superannuation Schemes Act 2011
to enable the trustee board of the Commonwealth Superannuation Corporation to comply with the new independence requirements.

We acknowledge the traditional owners and custodians of country throughout Australia and acknowledge their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to the people, the cultures and the elders past, present and emerging.
