Curran, Michael, e Prem W. S. Yapa. "Examining the Taxation Profession in Australia – A Framework". Australasian Business, Accounting and Finance Journal 15, n. 3 (2021): 3–22. http://dx.doi.org/10.14453/aabfj.v15i3.2.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This paper examines the nature of the taxation profession in Australia and its development over the past three decades and then suggests a framework to analyse important initiatives that have taken place during this period. Using secondary sources and the organizing principles of State, Market and Community (Puxty et al., 1987), we begin with the subject of tax policies and legislation introduced by the state and its impact on the tax profession in Australia. We follow this with a discussion relating to the recognition of Australian tax practice as a profession. The paper then focusses on two key areas of professional development during the last three decades, namely: tax law and tax administration. The paper finds interesting issues relating to professionalization of taxation in Australia. With the involvement of the state, market and the society over the last three decades, there is a requirement to recognise taxation practice as a profession in Australia. The paper suggests that the establishment of the Tax Practitioners Board[1], a statutory body to regulate the taxation profession in Australia, in conjunction with approved professional associations, may have enhanced the effective maintenance of the tax profession which has contributed to social, political and economic development in Australia. [1] The Minister for Revenue and Financial Services appoint the Board, so there is some degree of control by the state.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Australian legislation has recently undergone further developments which affect non- residents investing in Australian petroleum projects. The comments in this paper reflect our understanding of the law at November 1988.These legislative developments have occurred in foreign investment rules and primary tax areas such as the thin capitalisation and debt creation rules for nonresident investors, Australian capital gains tax including the new involuntary roll- over provisions, the Australian dividend imputation system, and secondary taxes such as state royalties and excises and petroleum resource rent tax.The purpose of this paper is to analyse some of the recent legislative developments from the viewpoint of a non- resident investing in Australian petroleum projects. Changes in most cases are incorporated in complex legislation, and full and proper consideration of the changes is warranted for taxpayers both to comply with the law and maximise shareholders' financial returns.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Tax legislation traditionally distinguishes between returns on investment paid on equity and debt instruments. In the main, returns on debt instruments (interest payments) are deductible for the paying company, while distributions on equity instruments (dividends) are not. This difference in taxation can be exploited using hybrid instruments and often leads to a debt bias in investment patterns. South Africa, Australia and Canada have specific rules designed to prevent the circumvention of tax liability when company distributions are made in respect of hybrid instruments. In principle, Australia and Canada apply a more robust approach to prevent tax avoidance and also tend to include a wider range of transactions, as well as an unlimited time period in their regulation of the taxation of distributions on hybrid instruments. In addition to the anti-avoidance function, a strong incentive is created for taxpayers in Australia and Canada to invest in equity instruments as opposed to debt. This article suggests that South Africa should align certain principles in its specific rules regulating hybrid instruments with those in Australia and Canada to ensure optimal functionality of the South African tax legislation. The strengthening of domestic tax law will protect the South African tax base against base erosion and profit shifting through the use of hybrid instruments.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Many jurisdictions face the question of whether to legislate to introduce a whistle-blower protection regime for disclosures of information regarding breaches of tax laws or misconduct relating to an entity’s tax affairs. To this extent, Australia is no exception and is in the process of passing legislation through Parliament to insert a comprehensive regime into the Taxation Administration Act 1953 for the protection of individuals who report breaches of the tax laws or misconduct. Like all regulatory reform, the introduction of the legislation has been a lengthy and controversial process which began with an announcement by the Government as part of their Federal Budget in May 2016. This article discusses Australia’s historical and recent approach to whistle-blower protection, provides an analysis of the processes which resulted in legislation being proposed and analyses some of the fundamental elements of the proposed whistle-blower protection regime for tax matters.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The concept ‘place of effective management’ (POEM) is used in many States around the world. Yet the meaning of this concept remains somewhat ambiguous. It is important to establish where an entity is effectively managed, since many States still use The POEM as one of the criteria to determine residence in terms of their domestic legislation. Furthermore, The POEM is still relevant in several double taxation treaties (DTTs), even after the changes to the OECD Model Tax Convention and the Multilateral Convention to Implement Tax Treaty Related Measures to Prevent Base Erosion and Profit Shifting. This article critically analyses significant judgments from the United Kingdom, South Africa, Canada and Australia. From these judgments, a set of guidelines to determine an entity’s POEM is compiled. These guidelines may assist both taxpayers and tax administrators in the application of the concept of the POEM to a new set of facts.

Barrett, Jonathan. "Dissonance between Fact and Law: The Example of Visual Artistic Practice and Income Tax Concessions for Peak Copyright". Victoria University of Wellington Law Review 52, n. 4 (26 gennaio 2022): 689–708. http://dx.doi.org/10.26686/vuwlr.v52i4.7400.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The principal income tax statutes of both New Zealand and Australia provide special concessions for taxpayers who earn exceptional copyright income in a year of assessment. As authors (creators) of copyright-protected artistic works, visual artists are potential beneficiaries of these preferences but, because they typically produce singular artworks that are not licensed for reproduction, they cannot directly benefit from copyright or, as a consequence, tax concessions granted to copyright assignors or licensors. In New Zealand, a taxpayer who receives peak copyright payments can opt to average those receipts over more than one assessment year. An Australian taxpayer can spread their more broadly defined assessable professional income and, if they operate a professional arts business, may enjoy an exception to the non-commercial loss rules, and so may claim net losses in the year they are incurred. The substantive provisions of neither the Income Tax Act 2007 nor the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Cth) expressly incorporates provisions of copyright legislation but both taxing statutes explicitly import copyright terminology and, implicitly, concepts and doctrine. Examination of differences between fact and law is a significant field of legal research. In taxation studies, John Prebble's identification of "ectopia" presents the best-known analysis. Prebble characterises income tax law as "ectopic" (out of place), inasmuch as it is dislocated from the facts to which it relates. Copyright law is likewise dislocated from typical artistic practice. When copyright principles are incorporated into income tax legislation, the relevant provisions may be doubly estranged from the facts to which they relate. This article, which has an Australasian jurisdictional focus but also draws on Quebecois tax legislation, investigates that possibility and considers, in particular, the consequences for equity in income taxation.

Bal, Aleksandra. "Developing a Regulatory Framework for the Taxation of Virtual Currencies". Intertax 47, Issue 2 (1 febbraio 2019): 219–33. http://dx.doi.org/10.54648/taxi2019019.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This article reviews virtual currency regulations in five selected countries (Australia, Germany, the Netherlands, the United States and the Unites Kingdom), develops a methodology for creating an effective regulatory framework for the taxation of virtual currencies, and makes recommendations for the improvement of certain characteristics of the existing income tax systems that currently struggle with the enforcement of tax compliance obligations regarding transactions in virtual currencies. The author advocates the use of legislation to clarify the fundamental aspects of virtual currency transactions together with more detailed non-binding interpretative guidance that can be quickly adapted to changing circumstances. Enforcement and monitoring measures by tax authorities should not target an infinitely large number of unidentified individuals but a much smaller number of operators providing exchange services and wallet providers. A third-party reporting regime for virtual currency intermediaries should be aligned with the existing reporting obligations for anti-money laundering purposes.

Beebeejaun, Ambareen. "The Anti-Avoidance Provisions of the Mauritius Income Tax Act 1995". International Journal of Law and Management 60, n. 5 (10 settembre 2018): 1223–32. http://dx.doi.org/10.1108/ijlma-07-2017-0174.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Purpose A taxpayer who gets caught under Part VII of the Mauritius Income Tax Act is subjected to a corrective measure only in the form of payment of the amount of tax that would have been due in the absence of the avoidance arrangement, but the consequences set out in the same section do not result in any disincentive to the taxpayer that would ensure the prevention of the occurrence of such type of anti-avoidance practices in the future. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of the anti-avoidance provisions in the Mauritius legislation as a weapon against impermissible tax avoidance, and the study also intends to critically analyse the remedies available against taxpayers who enter into impermissible tax avoidance transactions. Design/methodology/approach The methodology adopted for this qualitative study consists of a critical analysis and comparative legal review of the relevant legislation, case laws and literature. The anti-avoidance provisions of the Mauritius legislation will be compared with similar provisions of legislations of countries that have rigid preventive rules for anti-avoidance practices, and the selected countries are the UK and Australia because each country has been successful in diminishing the tax avoidances practices further to the imposition of penalties for impermissible tax avoidance. The black letter approach will also be used through which existing legal provisions, judicial doctrines, scholar articles and budget speeches governing anti-avoidance provisions for each country identified will be analysed. Findings Further to an analysis of the substantial differences between Mauritius anti-avoidance legal provisions and those of the UK and Australia, it is found that the backing of corrective actions by penalties act as a disincentive to prohibit impermissible anti-avoidance practices. The study concludes that, where there is abuse of law, the law needs to provide for penalties that must be suffered by the abuser, and hence, the study calls for an amendment in the Mauritius Income Tax Act to strengthen anti-avoidance provisions, by adopting similar provisions of the laws of Australia and the UK. Originality/value At present, there is no Mauritius literature on the researched topic, and this study will be one of the first academic writings on the subject of penalties for impermissible tax avoidance in Mauritius. The study is a new and unique topic in Mauritius, and for that reason, the study will largely rely on foreign sources that deal with penalties for impermissible tax avoidance, and this will include the Australian Taxation Administrative Act 1953, Australian case laws and the UK Finance Act 2016. This study is being carried out with the view to provide insightful recommendations to the stakeholders concerned in Mauritius to enhance the revenue collection avenues and methodologies for the Mauritius revenue authorities.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
It is commendable that our governments have reached agreement on the delicate and difficult issues which are the subject of the Treaty and have provided a leading example of international co-operation. Nonetheless, whilst oil industry participants may be pleased at this major development and encouragement to future exploration for oil reserves, many practical issues still need resolution during the legislative stage of 'bedding down' the Treaty initiatives.Other authors have reviewed the legal and operating regimes of the Timor Gap Zone of Co-operation Treaty.This paper is therefore only concerned with a review of the taxation implications which are likely to arise for those petroleum explorers and potential producers who will hold contracts to explore for and produce petroleum in Area A, and an identification of questions on tax issues which require resolution at an industry and government level. Needless to say not all issues are recognizable at this stage and thus some time will elapse before it is possible to be totally comfortable with the taxation arrangements in a technical sense.This review is accomplished by generally overviewing the Zone of Co-operation Treaty. The reader is then introduced to concepts of the Australian and Indonesian petroleum tax regimes, with explanation as to how those concepts will apply once overlaid by the Taxation Code for Avoidance of Double Taxation. This review raises various tax issues and questions which require resolution during the legislative phase. Perhaps industry will take up some of the questions raised so that when legislation is enacted to incorporate the Taxation Code into Australian tax law, the majority of issues will have been settled.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Tim Edgar's passing in December 2016 dealt a severe blow to tax scholarship in Canada and globally, not to mention being a sad loss for this journal, to which he was a contributor for over three decades. Tim's books, journal articles, and book chapters spanned a wide spectrum of tax policy issues and have played a central role in helping policy makers, academics, and students understand some of the most conceptually and technically difficult areas of tax law. Tim's book on the taxation of financial arrangements, published by the Canadian Tax Foundation, is viewed by policy makers worldwide as the definitive authority on the subject, setting out a principled path to carving out the debt component of financial instruments and subjecting it to neutral accrual taxation. In a closely related area, his detailed analysis of the difficulties confronting policy makers who seek a neutral application of the goods and services tax (GST) to financial supplies is considered to be foundational work in the field, and his proposal to remove the tax from business-to-business supplies has been adopted directly in New Zealand and via an indirect mechanism in Singapore. Tim's work on the general anti-avoidance rule is cited time and again as a key treatment of the topic, while his proposal to extend thin capitalization rules to outbound investment has been adopted in Australia. Tim's comprehensive analysis of the Canadian pseudo-imputation system opens the door to a much-needed reconsideration of the system. The more challenging the subject matter, the deeper Tim investigated and methodically dissected the topic to arrive at reasoned recommendations for reform. Tim's work will continue to be read, cited, and applied in practice for many years.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Digital currency is a ‘disrupter’ of financial services and currency markets, and as such presents new regulatory challenges. International regulatory responses to digital currency range from being largely ignored in some jurisdictions to being banned in others, with most jurisdictions charting a middle course of ‘wait and see’ while attempting to deal with pressing issues (such as taxation liability and potential money laundering and terrorism financing issues). This article explains digital currency, its benefits, its problems, its risks and the regulatory response so far. It analyses the extent to which the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC, the national securities regulator) may or may not have regulatory power and jurisdiction under existing Australian law, and the role of other relevant regulators and institutions. It concludes that digital currency may well be a ‘financial product’ under Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) s 763A (though many suppliers/issuers of that product will be website operators located outside Australia). If it is a financial product, ASIC would also have jurisdiction over issuers and markets that trade in that product. This conclusion could easily be fortified by legislative confirmation; however, it is suggested that ASIC should in all events test its powers to determine whether any legislative change is needed. Regulation by ASIC would add to recent moves to deal with digital currency by the Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC) and the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). In all cases, this article argues that the time has come for Commonwealth regulation of digital currencies by ASIC as the relevant regulator. This would then trigger the obligations set out in the Corporations Act and the ASIC Act, including Australian Financial Services Licensing, Australian Market Licensing, standards of efficiency, honesty and fairness, disclosure provisions, possible market offences and corporate regulation generally. The suggested jurisdiction of ASIC would build on its existing role as well as the roles of the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, the ATO and AUSTRAC.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This article investigates the legal status of Double Taxation Agreements, and the relationship between Double Taxation Agreements, which are concluded in terms of section 108 of the Income Tax Act, and the provisions of the Income Tax Act (taking into account the provisions of the Constitution, and the national and international rules for the interpretation of statutes). An important conclusion reached was that as the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties represents customary international law and as such forms part of South African law, the principles contained in the treaty should be taken into account when interpreting South African legislation (including Double Taxation Agreements). The final conclusion of the research was that Double Taxation Agreements have a dual nature – forming part of domestic legislation and being classified as international agreements. The provisions of the Double Taxation Agreement should be taken as overriding any conflicting legislation in the Income Tax Act.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Climate change is undoubtedly one of the greatest economic, social, and environmental challenges now facing the world. The present Australian Government is committed to acting on climate change and Australia’s progress towards its emissions reduction targets is being closely watched internationally. To contribute effectively to global climate change action, Australia must demonstrate its ability to implement robust and sustainable domestic emissions management legislation. The Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS), modelled after the cap-and-trade system, continues to be debated by our policymakers, as the Government moves to re-introduce its preferred CPRS legislative package for the third time. The advent of climate change legislation is inevitable and its impact will be far-reaching. This paper reviews the fiscal aspects of the proposed CPRS legislation in the context of the oil and gas industry, and whether it is conducive to creating incentives for appropriate climate change response by the industry. In particular, this paper will consider: the direct and indirect tax features specifically covered in the proposed CPRS legislation and their implications; the areas of taxation that remain uncanvassed in the proposed CPRS legislation and aspects requiring clarification from the tax administration; the interaction between Petroleum Resource Rent Tax (PRRT) and the CPRS measures; the flow-on impacts to taxation outcomes resulting from proposed accounting and financial reporting responses to the CPRS legislation; the income tax and PRRT treatment of selected abatement measures; and, elements of a good CPRS tax strategy and compliance action plan.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The author of the article has established that the law enforcement function, like all other functions, has its own mechanism of the implementation, which is based on a set of legal, organizational, economic and material elements. The system of such elements must meet the tasks that are set for the country at the present stage of state formation. It has been substantiated that administrative and legal provision of implementing the law enforcement function of the state in the taxation sector is a specific type of legal influence of administrative and legal forms and means, which together constitute a mechanism of administrative and legal regulation of implementing the law enforcement function of the state in the taxation sector, on the activity of corresponding subjects in order to ensure their normal functioning and effective performance of the duties assigned to them in the field of law and order, protection and defense of the rights and freedoms of citizens, combating offenses during the application of tax legislation. It has been clarified that the law norms provide interaction between the executive authorities and citizens in all spheres of public life, in particular law enforcement sphere and taxation sector, which in modern conditions determine the main criterion for assessing the quality of state policy. The essence of adaptation of the national legislation has been revealed. It has been proved that there is a sufficiently developed legal base in Ukraine, which regulates the main aspects for the adaptation of national legislation to the legislation of the European Union (in particular, in the sphere of implementing the law enforcement function of the state in the taxation sector). The author has determined the main steps in the direction of ensuring the effective functioning of administrative and legal mechanism for the provision of the implementation of the law enforcement function of the state in the taxation sector. It has been offered to make changes to the methodology and planning process on the adaptation of the current national legislation in the taxation sector.

With effect from 1 January 2010, the Dutch Inheritance and Gift Tax Act 1956 (IGTA) has been revised. The Netherlands Ministry of Finance identified the taxation of existing trust schemes and schemes that make use of irrevocable discretionary trusts allowing the avoidance of income tax and/or inheritance or gift tax in particular, as one of the most important objectives of the revision of the IGTA. The basic idea of the new legislation is that irrevocable and discretionary trust schemes are ignored for tax purposes (both for personal income tax and for IGTA purposes) and their income and assets attributed to the individuals involved.

In today’s international taxation most of the developing countries enter into tax treaties which are drafted in line with the OECD MC to eliminate double taxation. Yet, is well-known fact that tax treaties in practice are abused by tax payers, therefore, majority of states have introduce legislation specifically designed to prevent tax avoidance and protect their domestic interests. In legal practice and literature the act of overriding international tax treaties and denying treaty benefits in favour of domestic law provisions threatens main principle of international law and therefore is questionable to what extend the relationship between domestic law and international tax treaty agreements bridges the international norms.

Family violence is increasingly recognised as a serious social problem. That awareness has led to much legislation being passed to address the problem. The legislation has evolved from distinct civil and criminal roots to a point where the two closely interact. This article explores the sources and consequences of this interplay of the civil and the criminal in relation to family violence. The piece is dedicated to long-time colleague, Professor John Prebble, even though the topic does not grapple with his area of great expertise, the law of taxation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The last decade has seen major changes made to the taxation system in Australia. However, these changes have been primarily concerned with income tax reform. Three areas of the tax reform remain outstanding - wealth taxation, State tax reform and commodity tax reform. Wealth taxation has proven a politically sensitive issue subject to little public discussion, a situation not helped by a lack of data on wealth distribution in Australia. State taxation has been the focus of more public debate through a number of Government funded reviews but despite this, few of these report's recommendations have been implemented. Although the issue of commodity tax reform has been the subject of considerable public debate, it too has resuted in no substantive reforms. This paper argues that until the political dimension of tax reform is taken more fully into account when designing tax reform proposals, the debate on these three tax issues will not move from words to legislation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In order to determine what major developments have taken place in tax law in Israel over the last 40 years, it is first necessary to formulate criteria with which to estimate the importance or centrality of changes in tax legislation. The emphasis here is on legal developments (in legislation and case law) rather than on changes in the tax system and tax policy. In the field of taxation, legal, economic and social questions are, however, interlinked; and it is moreover, a legal tool — legislation — that determines the tax system and its composition of various tax bases.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The article analyzes the situations that might limit the rights of a taxpayer under double taxation avoidance agreements. Because of the analysis of the national legislation in the area of taxation, significant differences that lead to the emergence of controversial situations regarding double taxation are revealed. The general analysis of the basic concepts of legal regulation using Russian and foreign sources regarding restrictions on the exercise of taxpayer rights under double taxation avoidance agreements, principles and mechanisms in national legislation is carried out. Because of studying the terms of individual agreements on avoidance of double taxation to test the admissibility of applying national legislation, significant differences in the approaches of different countries and examples of law enforcement based on judicial practice are analyzed. The novelty of the article is the justification of the necessity of establishing the basic principles upon restricting taxpayer rights under double taxation avoidance agreements in national legislation. The practical significance of the work lies in identifying the role of mutual agreement procedures between the competent authorities of the contracting parties under double taxation avoidance agreements, as well as in stating recommendations on the practical application of the rules regarding the limitation of taxpayer rights under double taxation avoidance agreements. System analysis, expert analysis, event analysis, traditionally legal methods (formal and logical, comparative legal), structural analysis, and modeling research methods are used.

Bearing in mind the very limited scope of the acquis which is supposed to be implemented within the Stabilization and Association Agreement framework, the second part of this article is dedicated to analysing the impact of the accession negotiations on direct taxation in the Southeast European countries. Although the closing of the tax chapter during the accession negotiations with a particular acceding country should imply the required full alignment of its direct tax legislation with the acquis, the reality in numerous cases in the previous enlargement processes is far from the expected. In the area of European Union (EU) secondary tax legislation analysis has shown that the accession procedure will, in most cases, ensure the timely and full compliance of an acceding country with its requirements. However, the alignment of acceding countries legislation with the part of EU direct tax law stemming from the negative integration processes is much more demanding. In essence, there can be no absolute certainty that every provision of an acceding country's direct tax legislation has been placed under sufficient scrutiny during the tax chapter negotiations process and that its required full alignment with the case law of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) has been ensured. The authors conclude with an observation that the various approaches applied to different countries which have attempted or are attempting to become EU Member States within the accession process, beg the question of the objectivity of the process and how important is the role of political influences and interests on the success of a particular country in joining the EU.

Problem setting. The work is devoted to the study of the legal status of cryptocurrency as an object of taxation. The legal status of cryptocurrency in legal relations between tax authorities and individuals or legal entities is an urgent problem, since there is only a small number of works on this issue. Of particular note is the study of international experience in taxation of cryptocurrency transactions, as well as an analysis of the most relevant proposals for amending national legislation in order to establish the legal status of cryptocurrency and transactions related to cryptocurrency as an object of tax legal relations. Analysis of recent researches and publications. Despite the great relevance of this topic, in the modern science of tax law there are no fundamental scientific works and studies on the problems of taxation of cryptocurrency and cryptocurrency transactions. Target of research. The purpose of the scientific article is to conduct research on the legal nature of cryptocurrency, as well as the disclosure of theoretical, practical problems and features of legal regulation of cryptocurrency and operations related to the use of cryptocurrency in modern tax law. Article’s main body. The article deals with the legal nature of transactions connected with the use of the cryptocurrency as an object of tax relations. The issues of the possibility of attributing income, as well as profits from cryptocurrency transactions to the objects of taxation of personal income tax, profit tax, and value-added tax, are disclosed in accordance with the current tax legislation. The following conclusions have been drawn: it is impossible to impose the relevant taxes on income and profits from transactions with the cryptocurrency; there is a conflict in the current legislation, according to which the proceeds from transactions with cryptocurrency may be subject to the Law ‘On Prevention and Counteraction to Legalization (Laundering) of the Proceeds from Crime or Terrorism Financing, as Well as Financing Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction’ In addition, foreign experience of legal regulation of transactions with cryptocurrency in tax legislation in such economically developed countries as the USA, Great Britain, Canada, Germany, Switzerland, etc. has been analyzed. It has been established that nowadays, in world practice, there is no unambiguous approach to the tax regulation and taxation of cryptocurrency transactions. So, in some countries, the income from operations with cryptocurrency is taxable, while in others cryptocurrency transactions do not belong to objects of taxation. Conclusions and prospects for the development. As a result, the author presents her own proposals on amending the tax legislation aimed at determining the legal status of cryptocurrency transactions in tax law. The article is devoted to the legal nature of transactions related to the use of cryptocurrency as an object of tax relations. Foreign experience of taxation of operations with the cryptocurrency is analyzed. The author considers current proposals for amending the tax legislation of Ukraine, who’s the purpose of which is to determine the legal status and control measures for compliance with tax legislation in the implementation of cryptocurrency transactions in tax law.

Because the Netherlands and Germany approach the taxation of private use of company cars for VAT differently this may result in double or non-taxation. Double taxation in case the employer is a Dutch entrepreneur and the employee lives in Germany. Nontaxation if the employer is a German entrepreneur and the employee lives in the Netherlands. In this article the author seeks the answer to the question which country applies the correct approach. Her conclusion is that the legislation in both countries needs adjustment.

Subject. The influence of internationalization of tax law on Russian tax law enforcement in the area of corporate taxation is considered in the article.The purpose of the paper is to analyze influence of internationalization of tax law on Russian tax law enforcement in the area of corporate taxation.Methodology. The author uses methods of theoretical analysis, particularly the theory of integrative legal consciousness, as well as legal methods, including formal legal method and methods of comparative law.Results, scope of application. The development of Russian tax legislation is influenced by acts of international organizations, primarily the Action Plan aimed at combating base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS).Trends of regulation of corporate taxation in relationships with participation of a foreign element are considered in the article. The main issues of realization of norms in the area of corporate direct taxation are brought into light, and namely, taxation of royalties, intra-group expenses, thin capitalization rules and transfer pricing. Tax agreements concluded by the Russian Federation do not contain special rules aimed at combating abuses (in contrast, for example, from European anti-avoidance rules).In recent years Russian tax law introduced institutions that had been established and applied in the tax law of foreign countries. These processes are moving forward and are characterized by frequent changes of legislation, which indicates that the concept of deoffshorization and implementation of the BEPS plan is not always elaborated at the stage of adoption of bills.Conclusions. The author comes to the conclusion that the most relevant and most controversial issues are taxation of payment of royalties, debt financing and intra-group expenses. The practice of applying the CFC rules is just starts forming. In addition, there is a tendency to increase the quality and quantity of information sources used by tax authorities to collect evidence, including the expansion of the practice of information exchange.

The article deals with topical issues arising in law enforcement practice in connection with payment of dividends by Russian organizations to their foreign participants. At the beginning of the article, the author, relying on the current legislation, elucidates the concept of dividends in civil law and fiscal law contexts, on the basis of which he concludes that these concepts do not coincide completely. This discrepancy is caused by the fact that the concept of dividends in the contexts of civil and fiscal law includes, in addition to the distribution of profits, other payments to foreign organizations made in order to meet the fiscal interests of the State. Then, on the basis of a brief analysis of specific court cases, the author dwells on the content of the main controversial tax issues arising in practice regarding the payment of dividends by Russian organizations towards their foreign participants. Based on the results of the analysis, the author draws conclusions on possible amendments to the Russian legislation in order to avoid such disputes between tax agents and tax authorities in the future.

Tax practitioners play a pivotal role in the Australian taxation system. Not only do they act as intermediaries between the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) and the majority of taxpayers, especially business taxpayers, but they also influence the ethical climate and level of compliance with taxation laws. This article discusses this role by reference to data derived from an empirical study of tax practitioners and tax officials from around Australia. The study sheds light on the nature of the compliance problem and the factors which affect the administration of Australian taxation law generally.

The subject of the research is the legal norms contained in legislation and other legal acts that regulate the grounds for the emergence and the mechanism for implementing the status of an accredited investor, requirements for individuals, as well as certain aspects of taxation of accredited investors. The experience of legal regulation of income from investment activities, used in foreign legislation, is also analyzed in the context of the topic.The purpose of the article is to confirm the need to revise the requirements for accredited investors, to clarify the legislative provisions of the personal income tax. The reason for this study was legislative changes that caused an ambiguous reaction among the entire legal community in Russia.The methodology. General scientific methods were applied in the framework of a comparative, logical and statistical study and analysis of law enforcement and judicial practice in the field of taxation of an accredited investors.The main results. The following issues were investigated. What was the reason for the introduction of the status of an accredited investor in Russian legislation? It was the need firstly to protect the rights of investors, and secondly to regulate and protect the stock market from unconsciously high-risk transactions. What requirements are specified in the law for obtaining this status, what requirements exist in foreign legislation and why does domestic legislation need to be revised? We can divide the requirements for obtaining the status into three general groups: experience, knowledge and risk. Investor is obliged to meet two criteria by European legislation, when only one criterion by Russian legislation. The problem of taxation of qualified investors was raised in the context of the progressive income tax rate. Taxation of qualified investors needs a thorough legislative review in terms of tax deductions.Conclusions. The ideas for the introduction of the status of an accredited investor, of a progressive personal income tax rate were implemented in Russian legislation from the legislation of foreign countries. Such Russian legal rules needs significant revision. The legislative term "accredited investor" should be introduced in legislation system. It is necessary to clarify the criteria for obtaining a status, as well as to consolidate the necessity for accredited investors to comply with two conditions instead of one. Such an initiative would allow investors themselves to approach investing more consciously and would remove risks from brokers. Tax legislation should be amended in part of tax deductions for persons whose main activity is investment, since the current state of affairs discriminates them against individuals in their rights. The revision of the fixed requirements as well as the clarification of the tax legislation will attract investors (both Russian and foreign) to the Russian stock market, while the economy will receive positive growth, intermediaries-brokers and issuing firms will be provided with protection from unconscious risks.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In 2010, the pressure on exit taxes in the field of corporate income taxation has increased. In this article, it will be investigated which kind of exit taxes exist in the field of corporate income tax. The Dutch corporate income tax will be used as an example. First, the author analyses the exit taxes from a domestic legislation and a tax treaty point of view. Dutch legislation provides for an immediate taxation over the hidden reserves of the assets/liabilities of a company that migrates and, as a result, is no longer effectively taxable in the Netherlands. Subsequently, it is being investigated whether levying an exit tax is a forbidden infringement on the freedoms of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). The author comes to the conclusion that the exit tax forms an infringement on the freedom of residence, but that the preservation of the balanced allocation of taxing power forms a justification. However, the exit tax provisions are not proportional: a mechanism with, for example, a preservative assessment would be more proportional. However, because of the unclarity regarding the application of the proportionality principle by the ECJ, it could be that the ECJ will accept an immediate taxation upon exit and will not force the Netherlands to introduce a preservative assessment mechanism in the field of corporate income tax.

The taxation of bitcoins and similar cryptoassets is of immense economic importance to the individual taxpayer and to society as a whole. In recent years, they have effectuated a number of tax law issues in Denmark. In Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, the taxation of bitcoins and similar cryptoassets is based on the general rules of tax law. This article contains a comparative analysis of the three Scandinavian countries’ tax treatment of gains and losses on them. The analysis shows that the Norwegian and Swedish rules that have been significantly changed and modernized do not at all present the same challenges as the Danish rules. In Denmark, there is need for uniformity, predictability, and clarity to be introduced into the taxation rules. Therefore, the article also provides some reflections how to change the Danish tax legislation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In the 21st century we are constantly bombarded with issues on the need to do more to protect the environment and deal with greenhouse gas issues. The petroleum industry world-wide has come under fire for the emissions produced as a by-product of the petroleum refining industry and all primary producers and refiners must develop strategies to reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide emissions. While it is probably fair to say Australia’s appetite for production and consumption of natural gas or LNG is much more environmentally friendly than the days of fossil fuel sources such as coal, there is still a long way to go to minimise emissions in the industry.Global oil and gas companies operating in Australia are leading the way to develop ways to reduce greenhouse emissions. Two examples are Gorgon joint venture plans for carbon dioxide sequestration for its gas development project and perhaps BHP Billiton’s comments that it sees potential for similar sequestration into coal seams onshore Australia in Queensland, South Australia or New South Wales.The costs of projects to re-use or re-inject or sequestrate greenhouse gases are likely to be significant. But are these operating costs of the taxpaying entities in question and would they qualify for tax relief for income tax or petroleum resource rent tax purposes? This paper looks at some of the projects now underway in Australia to reduce greenhouse emissions in the petroleum sector and assesses whether the type of costs likely to be incurred in such projects might qualify for tax relief under existing legislation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Some European states apply an absolute prohibition of retroactivity in taxation, whereas others allow for retroactivity to various extent. A number of states apply different variations of a legislative technique that comprises press releases; special announcements; or, as in the case of Sweden, communications issued by the government. Such press releases and communications often have in common the effect of rendering legally binding, from the time of their publication, laws that are subsequently adopted by Parliament. In this article, this technique is subjected to discussion. An evaluation is presented on the use of retroactive tax legislation in Sweden over the past two decades.

In this 2019 electoral year, a federal Morrison Liberal Government was returned to power with little in the way of an industrial agenda. It failed to implement its key legislation, which mainly included reform to union governance and changes to religious freedom in the workplace. Meanwhile, the state governments, particularly the Victorian Andrews Labor Government, reviewed a swathe of labour law, including wage theft, industrial manslaughter, owner–driver legislation and workers' compensation laws and implemented a host of progressive changes. This year has also seen the continuation of a key policy trend, observable at both state and federal levels of government, towards regulation of aspects of industrial relations by the state that were once exclusively the province of employers and trade unions through a twentieth-century system of conciliation and arbitration.

Abstract The choice of delivery terms in international contracts has significant impact on both physical and financial risks for importers and exporters. This paper considers implications resulting from a recent Australian tribunal case involving transactions based on Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) terms (Incoterms). This case highlights how importers may become exposed to unexpected financial penalties caused by incorrect processes from foreign suppliers that result in duty and taxation payment shortfalls. The discussion focuses on the risk elements related to DDP for importers and the interpretation of legislation and policy documents. A chronological timeline of events is provided to explain the changes in policies and interpretation related to ownership as defined by Australian customs legislation. The conclusion is that, due to customs considerations and the decision of the tribunal in this case, DDP may no longer be a viable option for international trade transactions, not only in Australia, but also in other nations.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Pursuant to the preamble of the Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive (ATAD), its primary purpose is to combat abusive practices in the EU and ensure that tax is paid where profits are generated without undermining the functioning of the internal market through double taxation (ATAD, recitals 1 and 5). Regardless of the aim of avoiding the creation of a double tax burden on taxpayers, the ATAD does not obligate Member States to effectively eliminate the aforesaid burden. It is, therefore, a taxpayer’s responsibility to identify the correct source of law for providing relief from double taxation. This article focuses on the double taxation that is caused by the implementation of the ATAD and identifies the correct source of law, if possible, to provide relief for such double taxation. As the potential sources of law, the OECD MC (OECD Model Tax Convention on Income and on Capital 2017 (Full Version) (OECD Publishing 2019)), and European Union legislation have been analysed. The scope of this article is limited to the rule on interest deduction limitation and controlled foreign company (CFC) rules as provided in the ATAD.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
On 3 January 2007 the Minister for Revenue and Assistant Treasurer Peter Dutton released revised exposure draft legislation and explanatory material in relation to the taxation of financial arrangements that would ‘reduce uncertainties and distortions’. Further Mr Dutton said that:‘The reforms will lead to lower costs for financial activities conducted by business and result in improved competitiveness and great efficiency in the general operation of Australia’s financial markets.’This release followed a previous exposure draft released for consultation purposes during December 2005. Many changes have arisen as a result of the consultation process and the current draft is a positive step in providing a comprehensive code to regulate this area. As with any proposal there remain issues that are uncertain; however, the Government is committed to the consultation in relation to the current draft.At a high level this legislation allows taxpayers to more closely align the tax treatment of financial arrangements to accounting treatment.The exposure draft is incomplete in that it does not contain rules to address the tax treatment of synthetic financial arrangements and Treasury has left open whether further integrity measures will be introduced.This paper seeks to outline the primary provisions proposed in the draft legislation and discuss in general terms what the changes may mean to companies operating in the oil and gas industry. Further, the paper recommends several steps that companies can take now to prepare themselves for the introduction of the law.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The principle of legality of taxation is among the greatest rule of law, which not only provides protection against the arbitrariness of the authorities, but also, in a political sense, ensures the legal certainty of citizens, their rights and freedoms. The legal meaning of the principle of legality of taxation manifests in the establishment of taxes and the determination of the important tax components, tax rate interpretations, determination of taxes and the prohibition of the retroactive effects of tax laws. The very complexity of tax matters requires that certain questions regarding the entire process of taxation are further regulated by subordinate legislation, which is, on the basis of legal authorization, left to the executive authority or the government, the ministry of finance, the tax authorities, and in some particular cases to the local governments. However, subordinate legislation, such as decrees, regulations, instructions and decisions can only have a subsidiary character of the legislation in terms of the elaboration of legal provisions and shall be made when there is a specific authorization by tax law. Whether the principle of legality is violated by some regulation or not is decided in each specific case in a constitutional dispute by constitutional court, which evaluates whether the subordinate tax regulations set to taxpayers some new requirements that are not determined by tax law.

The theme of this paper is environmental taxation in Brazil and, more specifically, the function of tax in regard to environmental protection – taxation on fiscal and non-fiscal purposes –, as well as the possibilities and limits of the environmental use of tax species referred to in the Brazilian Constitution. The objectives are, on the one hand, to demonstrate that taxes can be created with an environmental orientation, and, on the other hand, to expose doctrinal divergences and convergences concerning the modalities of environmental taxation regarding its use in the different kinds of Brazilian tax, especially tax and contribution to intervene in the economic domain. The article uses bibliographic and legislation research as a method to show the reader the existence of agreements and disagreements among some of the authors who approach the subject. It concludes that, except for the divergence related to tax, the doctrine allows for the use of the several Brazilian tax species to contribute to environmental preservation.

To liberalise taxation and support business during martial law, the government introduced a 2% rate on turnover instead of VAT and income tax. The calculations confirm the planned reductions in budget revenues as a result of changes in the tax system; these reductions are not likely to be temporary. The changes introduced by the government are not a tax reform, but a need to support taxpayers during the russian federation's aggression. In such a difficult economic environment for domestic enterprises, it is relevant to study advantages and disadvantages of a new tax policy, which may (or may not) be pursued even after the repeal of martial law. The analysis of the economic nature of universal excise taxes or, as they are also called, consumption taxes (value-added tax, turnover tax, sales tax), proved that the most transparent administration and accrual are characteristic of the retail sales tax. It was studied that when levying a retail sales tax, it was difficult to identify the end-user. The disadvantage is that the state budget receives money once at the stage of the commodity last sale. A value-added tax would optimally balance budget revenues. However, the VAT mechanism is considered by most experts to be extremely corrupt due to the end-to-end control by government agencies over the actual payment of VAT, resulting in the embezzlement of public funds. Among the radical options for VAT reform, the proposal to replace VAT with a turnover tax is often considered. We fully support the generalization that the tax pyramiding of the accrual of turnover tax is a prerequisite for abandoning it all the same in favour of value added tax. Moreover, it is impossible to integrate the Ukrainian tax system into the European one without VAT. At the same time, EU tax legislation provides for simplified VAT procedures as flat-rate schemes, which is implemented in domestic practice in the form of a flat tax mechanism. Based on this study, it can be argued that the current taxation model in Ukraine is universal, namely, a combination of VAT and turnover tax application for business entities. The main objective shall be further improvement of these payments and their administration.

By virtue of the stabilization and association process, aspiring Southeast European nations will begin the alignment of their legislation to EU standards much before they are granted the status of an official candidate and commence accession negotiations. Therefore, in the first part of this article, the authors assess the impact of the Stabilization and Association Agreements (and the Interim Trade Agreements as their prelude) on direct taxation, regardless of accession negotiations, as well as the scope of the changes carried out in direct tax legislation and their potential as the starting points once the accession process commences. In other words, the first part of this article is dedicated to answering the question which parts of the acquis would have to be implemented by a Southeast European nation which is a candidate or a potential candidate for EU membership regardless of the success of the accession process. The conclusion which is drawn is that the pre-accession negotiations phase of the EU integration processes of Southeast European countries has a limited effect on their direct tax legislation, while the vast majority of the acquis will have to be subject to adoption within the accession negotiations phase of EU integration to which the second part of this article is dedicated to.

It has been a quiet year like last year for the passing of federal industrial legislation (due to a number of factors, including the political turmoil of the federal coalition government and their lack of an overall labour law reform agenda). This article examines key federal industrial legislative developments including the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Cth). The article identifies that the federal Act contains much weaker compliance measures than the counterpart New South Wales legislation also passed in 2018 – the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (NSW). Also, although the Coalition government has attempted to continue to prosecute its case for further union governance measures, this agenda has been less successful than in previous years, with key government Bills not yet passed by the Parliament. The stagnation in the federal Parliament continues to motivate certain State Parliaments to address worker exploitation, and the article goes on to examine key State industrial legislation passed in 2018 including the Victorian labour hire licensing statute. In light of the continuing dominant position of the federal Labor opposition in opinion polls and an impending federal election in 2019, the article concludes by briefly considering the federal Labor opposition's agenda for industrial legislation.
