Breach reporting and SRF 350.0
SRF 350.0 requires trustees to attest to compliance with key legislative requirements governing superannuation. The requirement to attest compliance within this form is not intended to exceed the requirements for trustees to report only significant breaches to APRA as required by section 29JA of the SIS Act. In the event a breach of any of the part of the legislative framework referred to in this form has occurred and the breach was not significant as defined in section 29JA of the SIS Act, then the trustee is not required to attest non-compliance within this form. Where non-compliance with any of the provisions referred to in this form has occurred and this non-compliance is determined to be a significant breach, then trustees are expected to attest to such non-compliance within this form.
