Concise income tax

The fourth edition of this standard text on taxation law continues to provide a comprehensive, yet succinct, examination of the most important areas of income taxation law. Almost every chapter in the book has had to be updated to reflect recent legislative amendments and judicial determinations including the changes to tax administration, particularly with regard to non-ruling ATO advice, rulings, and amended assessments; the controversial promoter penalty provisions which were introduced to deter the promotion of tax avoidance schemes; the new category of taxpayers, "temporary residents," who enjoy many of the benefits of non-residents; the significant expansion of the allowable expenses for capital gains purposes which has arisen as a result of changes to the cost base; the limiting of the deductibility of losses and outgoings pertaining to certain illegal activities; and the increase in the types of expenses that may be deducted under the "blackhole" provisions in Div 40-I.

The 1999 review of business taxation's small business reforms

This thesis considers the 1999 Review of Business Taxation's small business reforms. It is argued that policy problems arose from flaws in the Review's policy design processes and in weaknesses in the enactment processes of the federal Government. This created policy structural defects, resulting in substantial levels of community criticism.

The implications of de‐collectivist industrial relations laws and associated developments for worker health and safety in Australia, 1996–2007

The institutional and regulatory interlinkages between industrial relations (IR) and occupational health and safety (OHS) are seldom explored in the IR literature. This article begins to address this gap by examining regulatory initiatives in Australia during a period of neoliberal government. It examines the laws enacted by the federal government during this period and events and cases arising from these laws that go some way to illustrating their effects. Evidence is also drawn from detailed research on a number of state OHS inspectorates between 2004 and 2006. It is argued that de-collectivist changes to IR laws exacerbated problems posed by the growth of flexible work arrangements and a drop in union density, weakening participatory provisions in OHS laws and promoting work arrangements that undermined OHS standards. The study provides evidence of the implications of a divergence in the trajectory of IR and OHS laws and the importance of better integrating worker protection laws.

Employment and industrial law in paramedic practice

This chapter will provide you with the some of the information you may need to make information on decisions in cases such as the one given above. In particular it will help you answer questions such as: 1. As Molly and Vikram are approaching the end of their shift, to attend will force them into overtime; could they refuse to attend the job on the basis of the refusal to do overtime outside of contracted hours? 2. Would their refusal be viewed as a breach of contract and therefore a disciplinary issue? 3. Why? 4. Does the need to attend this possibly gravely ill patient outweigh the demands of the paramedics to finish on time?
