Canberra ACT 2600
Dear Sir
Australian Security Intelligence Organization Legislation Amendment
Bill 1999
Thank you for your letter dated 15 April 1999, asking the CTA to make
submissions about the proposed amendments.
Having regard to the other law enforcement agencies that already have
access to taxation information, and provided the proposed safeguards are
strictly adhered to, we would have no objections to amending the Taxation
Administration Act 1953 to add ASIO officers and officers of the Inspector
General of Intelligence and Security to the list of relevant law enforcement
agencies.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment.
Yours sincerely
Frank Drenth
