128 Signing of documents
(2)
A person shall not sign a document required by or under this Act to be signed if he or she knows that the document is false or misleading in a material particular.
Penalty: Imprisonment for 3 months.
Note:
Subsection 4B(2) of the Crimes Act 1914 allows a court to impose an appropriate fine instead of, or in addition to, a term of imprisonment. If a body corporate is convicted of the offence, subsection 4B(3) of that Act allows a court to impose a fine of an amount that is not greater than 5 times the maximum fine that could be imposed by a court on an individual convicted of the same offence.
