TRADE UNION ACT 1871 - SECT 16

Annual returns to be prepared as registrar may direct.

16. A general statement of the receipts, funds, effects, and expenditure of
every trade union registered under this Act shall be transmitted to the
registrar before the first day of June in every year, and shall show fully the
assets and liabilities at the date, and the receipts and expenditure during
the year preceding the date to which it is made out, of the trade union; and
shall show separately the expenditure in respect of the several objects of the
trade union, and shall be prepared and made out up to such date, in such form,
and shall comprise such particulars, as the registrar may from time to time
require; and every member of, and depositor in, any such trade union shall be
entitled to receive, on application to the treasurer or secretary of that
trade union, a copy of such general statement, without making any payment for
the same.

Together with such general statement there shall be sent to the registrar a
copy of all alterations of rules and new rules and changes of officers made by
the trade union during the year preceding the date to which the general
statement is made out, and a copy of the rules of the trade union as they
exist at that date.

Every trade union which fails to comply with or acts in contravention of this
section, and also every officer of the trade union so failing, shall each be
liable to a penalty not exceeding five pounds for each offence.

Every person who wilfully makes or orders to be made any false entry in or any
omission from any such general statement, or in or from the return of such
copies of rules or alterations of rules, shall be liable to a penalty not
exceeding fifty pounds for each offence.
