How Scouts of Australia Works

association under the Corporations Law and operates as a
central umbrella organization. The Scout clubs affiliated
with Scouts of Australia are not controlled by it but
retain their independence as autonomous local associations
of scouts. Scouts of Australia is an association of the
members of scout clubs. s
The internal organization of Scouts of Australia is simply
structured to ensure resources stay with Scouts and Scout
Clubs. There are only five categories of memberhip, four of
them at the club level, and only three levels of
organization. The management and administration is
representative and accountable.
