Unclaimed Money Act 2008

A document authorised or required to be served on or given to a person by the Registrar for the purposes of this Act may be served on or given to the person—

personally; or

by leaving it at the last address of the person known to the Registrar (including, in the case of a body corporate, the registered office or a business address of the body corporate); or

by post addressed to the person at the last address of the person known to the Registrar (including in the case of a body corporate, the registered office or a business address of the body corporate); or

by a means indicated by the person as being an available means of service (such as by facsimile or other electronic transmission or by delivering it, addressed to the person, to the facilities of a document exchange); or

by any means provided for the service of the document by another Act or law.

If a person (the agent) has actual or apparent authority to accept service of a document on behalf of another, the Registrar may, for the purposes of this Act, serve the document on the agent as if the agent were that other person.

Service of a document on a member of a partnership, or on a member of the committee of management of an unincorporated association or other body of persons, is taken, for the purposes of this Act, to constitute service of the document on each member of the partnership, or on each member of the association or other body of persons.
