The information required by this reporting standard must be given to APRA either:
(a) in electronic form, using one of the electronic submission mechanisms provided by the ‘Direct to APRA’ (also known as ‘D2A’) application; or
(b) manually completed on paper, which must be faxed or mailed to APRA’s head office.
Note: the Direct to APRA application software and paper forms may be obtained from APRA.
Reporting periods and due dates
Subject to paragraph 6, an ADI must provide the information required by this reporting standard in respect of each quarter based on the financial year (within the meaning of the Corporations Act 2001) of the ADI.
APRA may, by notice in writing, change the reporting periods, or specified reporting periods, for a particular ADI to require it to provide the information:
(a) more frequently (if, having regard to the particular circumstances of the ADI, APRA considers it necessary or desirable to obtain information more frequently for the purposes of the prudential supervision of the ADI); or
(b) less frequently (if, having regard to the particular circumstances of the ADI and the extent to which it requires prudential supervision, APRA considers it is unnecessary to require the ADI to provide the information as frequently as provided by paragraph 5).
The information required by this reporting standard must be provided to APRA by the following times:
(a) in the case of the information required by paragraph 3 from a highest parent entity that is a bank or special service provider – 25 business days after the end of the reporting period to which the information relates; and
(b) in the case of the information required by paragraph 3 from a highest parent entity that is a credit union, building society, a specialist credit card institution or Cairns Penny Savings & Loans Limited – 15 business days after the end of the reporting period to which the information relates.
APRA may grant an ADI an extension of a due date in writing, in which case the new due date for the provision of the information will be the date on the notice of extension.
Authorisation
The information provided by an ADI under this reporting standard must be subject to processes and controls developed by the ADI for the internal review and authorisation of that information. It is the responsibility of the board and senior management of the ADI to ensure that an appropriate set of policies and procedures for the authorisation of data submitted to APRA is in place.

If an ADI submits information under this reporting standard using the ‘Direct to APRA’ software, it will be necessary for an officer of the ADI to digitally sign, authorise and encrypt the relevant data. For this purpose, APRA’s certificate authority will issue ‘digital certificates’, for use with the software, to officers of the ADI who have authority from the ADI to transmit the data to APRA.
If information under this reporting standard is provided in paper form, it must be signed on the front page of the relevant completed form by either:
(a) the Principal Executive Officer of the ADI; or
(b) the Chief Financial Officer of the ADI (whatever his or her official title may be).
Minor alterations to forms and instructions
APRA may make minor variations to:
(a) a form that is part of this reporting standard, and the instructions to such a form, to correct technical, programming or logical errors, inconsistencies or anomalies; or
(b) the instructions, to clarify their application to the form
without changing any substantive requirement in the form or instructions.
If APRA makes such a variation it must notify an affected ADI in writing.
Transitional
If a reporting period of an ADI that is a highest parent entity ended on 30 June 2005, or ends after that date, the ADI must report under this reporting standard in respect of that reporting period.
