Payroll Tax
TO THE SPEAKER AND MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY FOR THE AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY
The petition of certain residents of the Australian Capital Territory draws to the attention of the Assembly:
that the provisions of the Payroll Tax Act 1987 differ from those in New South Wales in so far as they relate to the deeming of contractors to be employees.
Your petitioners therefore request the Assembly to:
amend the Payroll Tax Act 1987 so that contracts where work is carried out by formal partnerships or companies where two or more persons perform the actual work under the contract are exempted from the provisions of the Payroll Tax Act.
By Ms Follett (from 380 residents).
Petitions received.
