#### 33 Simplified outline of this Part
A registrant has various responsibilities under the scheme. In general terms, the responsibilities are to:
(a) promptly report any material changes affecting the registration and any disbursement activity undertaken on behalf of the foreign principal; and
(b) during the voting period for a federal election or designated vote—review the currency of information provided by the registrant and promptly report about certain registrable activities undertaken during the voting period; and
(d) renew registration annually for so long as the person remains liable to register under the scheme; and
(e) keep proper records.
In addition, any person who undertakes communications activity that is registrable in relation to a foreign principal must make a disclosure about the foreign principal. This applies whether or not the person is a registrant.
