Directors of companies are now at increased risk of personal exposure with the inclusion of GST into the director penalty regime from 1 April 2020, and the previous inclusion of SGC

• When the lock-out rule applies
• What new directors need to do to protect themselves
• How to deal with a director penalty notice (hint – don’t ignore it and hope it will go away)
• Defences available to directors
