Summary

Introduced with the Major Bank Levy Bill 2017, the bill amends the:

Australian Prudential Regulation Authority Act 1998
to enable the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) to share major bank levy information with the Commissioner of Taxation;
Financial Sector (Collection of Data) Act 2001
to enable the APRA reporting standards to include information relating to amounts for the purposes of the levy;
Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
to provide for the indexation of the $100 billion threshold; and
Taxation Administration Act 1953
to: specify that the levy is payable to the commissioner quarterly; ensure that the ordinary collection and recovery provisions apply in relation to the levy; introduce an anti-avoidance law for the levy; and enable the commissioner to share levy information with APRA.

We acknowledge the traditional owners and custodians of country throughout Australia and acknowledge their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to the people, the cultures and the elders past, present and emerging.
