House debates Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Bill 2006

Consideration of Senate Message

Thursday, 7 December 2006 House of Representatives

I move:

That the amendments be agreed to.

The amendments provide for a cost base of market value for certain assets that would not have been subject to Australia’s CGT regime prior to this measure being introduced. This will ensure that all such assets held by foreign residents on the date of announcement of the measure, 10 May 2005, and which subsequently become subject to Australia’s CGT regime receive a cost base of market value as at that date. I can inform the House that the amendment has no financial impact.
