Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997
Section 70-115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997-98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997-98 income year.
