Brindabella Christian College paid for an $800 speeding fine issued to the board chair and made a number of transactions with businesses involving directors or key management personnel, the Administrative Appeals Tribunal has heard.

Brindabella Christian Education Limited, which operates the school, is appealing a decision by the Education Minister which found the charity was not fit and proper to be an approved authority for a school and therefore imposed conditions to review its governance arrangements and financial situation.
