DUTIES ACT 1997 - SECT 163D
Concession for primary producers--continuation of land rich requirement
(1) Duty is chargeable under this Chapter in respect of an acquisition of an
interest in a primary producer only if, when the acquisition is made, the
primary producer is land rich.
(2) For the purposes of this section, a
"primary producer" is a landholder whose land holdings in all places, whether
within or outside Australia, wholly or predominantly comprise
land used for primary production or land that would be considered to be
land used for primary production if it were land in New South Wales.
(3) A
primary producer is
"land rich" if-- (a) it has land holdings in New South Wales with an
unencumbered value of $2,000,000 or more, and
(b) its land holdings in all
places, whether within or outside Australia, comprise 80% or more of the
unencumbered value of all its property.
(4) If at any time within the period
of 5 years after an acquisition of an interest in a primary producer is made,
the landholder in whom the acquisition is made ceases for any length of time
to be a primary producer-- (a) the person who made the acquisition must
immediately notify the Chief Commissioner-- (i) that the landholder has ceased
to be a primary producer, and
(ii) of the date on which the landholder ceased
to be a primary producer, and
(b) duty is chargeable under this Chapter in
respect of the acquisition on the date on which the landholder ceased to be a
primary producer, and
(c) the Chief Commissioner must make an assessment of
the duty so chargeable.
(5) Property is not to be counted in calculating the
unencumbered value of the property of a primary producer for the purposes of
this section if the primary producer is unable to satisfy the Chief
Commissioner that the property was obtained otherwise than to reduce, for the
purposes of this Chapter, the ratio of its land holdings in all places,
whether within or outside Australia, to the unencumbered value of all its
property.
