Registration eligibility for pre-Act societies requires member assent and a governing body or its creation. Entities formed before the Society Registration Act, 1860, for literary, scientific or charitable purposes may be registered under the Act if membership assent is obtained at a general meeting convened by the governing body. Directors of societies previously registered under Act 43 of 1850 are deemed the governing body; where no governing body exists, members may, on due notice, create one to facilitate registration.
