(b) the taxpayer becomes the head company of a consolidated group or MEC group on the day (also the consolidation day ) the group comes into existence; and

(2) Section 160AFE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as amended by this Schedule applies to the taxpayer from 1 July 2003. That section applies from 1 July 2003 until the start of the taxpayer's next income year as if that period were an income year.
