House of Representatives

Second Reading Speech

Mr Briggs (Assistant Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development)

I move that this bill be now read a second time.

The A New Tax System (Medicare Levy Surcharge - Fringe Benefits) Amendment Bill 2015 makes consequential amendments to A New Tax System (Medicare Levy Surcharge - Fringe Benefits) Act 1999.

These amendments support the repeal of the Medicare levy exemptions provided for by the Tax and Superannuation Laws Amendment (Norfolk Island Reforms) Bill 2015.

I commend the bill to the House.

Debate adjourned.
