The Henry Review's First Paper - Watch this Space
7 August 2008
The proposal for a ‘root and branch’ review of Australia’s tax system first emerged from the Prime Minister’s ‘2020 Summit’ in April, and was then re-announced in the May Budget. The committee selected by the Treasurer to undertake this review, now called Australia’s Future Tax System Review (‘the Review’), released its first paper yesterday. The paper is a weighty work – it is well over 300 pages – and so this Tax Brief examines its main focus and broad thrust. For our full Tax Brief - click here.
