Commonwealth Consolidated Acts Commonwealth Consolidated ActsIndustry Innovation and Science Australia can register entities as eligible venture capital investors, and revoke their registration.
Registration is one of the requirements before investments of venture capital by an entity directly (rather than through a limited partnership) can attract the operation of section 118 - 415 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the related provisions about similar income gains and losses).
