Addendum
This Addendum is a public ruling for the purposes of the Taxation Administration Act 1953. It amends Goods and Services Tax Ruling GSTR 2006/9 following the publication of Goods and Services Tax Determinations GSTD 2012/1 and GSTD 2012/2.
GSTR 2006/9 is amended as follows:
Omit 'a property'; substitute: 'real property in the form of commercial premises'.
Omit the paragraph; substitute:
79. Also, the Court did not discuss whether Westley made an ongoing supply in relation to honouring the existing lease, as this question was not central to its conclusion that Westley assumed the obligation to honour the lease. The Commissioner's view is that a purchaser who has acquired a reversionary interest in commercial premises subject to a lease is making a positive act by continuing to tolerate the lessee's occupation subject to the terms of the existing lease. The Commissioner is also of the view that, following the sale of the reversion, there is a continuing supply by the purchaser to the lessee.[F35AA]
