A Directors Resolution to Appoint a New Officeholder is used to confirm and record the appointment of a new officeholder to a company. When a company decides to appoint a new officeholder, this is done so in a meeting of the Directors of the company. Just as every change decided upon in a company meeting needs to be documented as a resolution, so too does the decision made by the directors to appoint a new officeholder.

It is important that this is recorded as you have 28 days within which to notify ASIC of this change from the date it is made. If ASIC is not notified within this period, fines will apply.
