(5) What is the value of the objections lodged in each financial year referred to in part (1), broken down by the (a) type of objection and (b) property type that were (i) allowed or part allowed, (ii) disallowed, (iii) withdrawn, (iv) outstanding or (v) any other relevant category.

Mr Barr: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
Answers to questions (5) and (6) are partially responded to in the answer to Question on Notice 2490.
The number of objections and appeals from the 2007-08 to 2016-17 financial years were previously provided in response to Question on Notice 1118 of 23 March 2018. The number of appeals for 2017 18 to 2018-19 (to 22 February 2019) were previously provided in response to Question on Notice 2330 of 22 February 2019.
I have been advised by the ACT Revenue office that the remaining information sought is not in an easily retrievable form, and that to collect and assemble the information sought solely for the purpose of answering the question would require a considerable diversion of resources. Further, I may not be able to provide the level of breakdown sought by the Member as it could disclose taxpayer information in breach of the secrecy provisions of the Taxation Administration Act 1999.
In this instance, I do not consider that it would be appropriate to divert resources from other priority activities for the purposes of answering the Member’s question.

(3) What is the value the appeals lodged in each financial year referred to in part (1), broken down by the type of appeals that were (a) allowed or part allowed, (b) settled, (c) dismissed, (d) outstanding or (e) any other relevant category.
