Hi Rog.
Things did change, since the '60s and '70s. The States' data bases were combined into a national data base (see Note). There is still continuing conversion of the states' non-electronic data bases of filed documents. All names have been transferred, so that when going to a state government website to check out the availability of a"name", you are linked to the national, or ASIC, site. Does this make sense?
Rog. ever time I see you sig line, "Life is supposed to be enjoyed, Mate!", I wonder whether I am enjoying life!!!!!
Regards, David.
Dave you're a wonder mate!
I am sure you're enjoying life . . . you strike me as the kind of guy who'd make participation in the game of life enjoyable under any circumstances!
On the change to the government registry system . . . that figures, and is not uncommon. I've seen it as I've moved about the world . . . one of the charms of being "old"!
What you say above makes sense . . . but note that what you referred to is "when making a new registration" . . . we are looking at history, and that historic record, and in particular with reference to "wound up" or ceased to exist entities . . . those records would likely not transfer to the national index since they are no longer live.
It would be prudent to search the old state records.
One thing that has not been established is the domicile the two entities: "The Church of Scientology Incorporated" and "Church of Scientology Incorporated (Australia)" and, indeed, if they are labellings of of one and the same outfit!!!.
