Submissions received regarding the Henry Tax Review and the government's response

As you will be aware on 2 May 2010 the Australian Government released Australia’s future tax system: Report to the Treasurer (referred to as the 'Henry Tax Review') and a Tax Policy Statement in response to the Henry Tax Review titled Stronger, Fairer, Simpler: A tax plan for our future.

The committee is seeking the views of industry and stakeholders on the impact of the recommendations of the Henry Tax Review and the government’s response on fuel and energy security.  The committee is particularly interested in any potential impact of the 'Resource Super Profits Tax' on both fuel and energy security and on jobs, especially in regional communities, and poses the following specific questions:

  1. What is your assessment of the impact of the proposed ‘Resource Super Profits Tax’ on your field?

  2. Specifically, what is your assessment of the impact of the ‘Resource Super Profits Tax’ on fuel and energy security in your field?

  3. Specifically, what is your assessment of the impact of the ‘Resource Super Profits Tax’ on jobs in your field?

  4. How do you foresee the proposed resource exploration rebate impacting on your field?

  5. Do you have any other issues you wish to raise with the committee about the recommendations set out in the Henry Tax Review and/or the government's response to those recommendations?
