On 14 June 2006, the Senate referred the provisions of the Petroleum Resource Rent Tax
Assessment Amendment Bill 2006 and a related bill to the Economics Legislation Committee for inquiry and report by Wednesday 21 June 2006.
The Committee will be holding a public hearing on the bills on Monday 19 June from 4:30pm. The program for this hearing is available on this website. This program is indicative, and may change without notice.
Because of the very short time available for this inquiry, the Committee has agreed to invite the Australian Petroleum Production and Exploration Association and representatives of the Department of the Treasury to give evidence.
The Committee has not called for submissions, but will accept them in written form. Persons intending to lodge submissions should note that these can only be accepted up until the day the Committee is to report. Persons contemplating making submissions are advised to discuss this with the Committee Secretary.
Written submissions should be sent to:
The Secretary,
Senate Economics Legislation Committee,
Suite SG.64, Parliament House
Canberra ACT 2600.
The Committee requests that where possible, submissions should also be provided by email to economics.sen@aph.gov.au, preferably as MS Word 97 or RTF format documents. Notes to assist in preparing submissions are available from the website https://www.aph.gov.au/senate/committee/wit_sub/index.htm or the Secretariat telephone 02 6277 3540, fax: 02 6277 5719, or e-mail at the above address.

You must not release your submission without the Committee’s permission. If you do, it is not protected by Parliamentary Privilege.
