amounts, being the respective amounts of the premiums; and
(b) for which either of the following
conditions is satisfied:

taxpayer’s income year in which 1 July 2003 occurs until the end of 30 June 2003 as if that period were an income year.

income year (whether or not the taxpayer has a substituted accounting period).
(2) Section 160AFE of the Income Tax Assessment Act
1936 as amended by this Schedule applies to the taxpayer from the
consolidation day. That section applies from the consolidation day until the

were an income year.
(3) If:
(a) the consolidation day is after 1 July 2002; and
(b) the taxpayer does not have a
substituted accounting period;
the old section 160AFE applies to the taxpayer from 1 July 2002 until just before the consolidation day. If the taxpayer so chooses, it

period, the old section 160AFE applies to the taxpayer from the start of the

(3) The old section 160AFE applies to the taxpayer from
the start of the taxpayer’s income year in which 1 July 2003 occurs until the end of 30 June 2003. If the taxpayer so chooses, it applies as if
that period were an income year.
8 Applying old section 160AFE to part years
(1) Subitem (2) has effect for the purposes of applying
the old section 160AFE:
(a) to a taxpayer as mentioned in item
5, 6 or 7; and
(b) for a period that is shorter than
an income year.
(2) The requirement in paragraph (1D)(b) of that
section that the income company be a group company in relation to the credit
company in relation to the current year of income has effect as if it were a
requirement that the income company be a group company in relation to the
credit company:
(a) continuously for a period of at
least 12 months ending on the day before the day on which section 160AFE of the
Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as amended by this Schedule starts to

were a requirement that the income company be a group company in relation to
the credit company:
(a) continuously for a period of at
least 12 months ending on the last day of the non‑membership period; or
(b) from the time when the income
company and the credit company were both in existence, if that period is
shorter.
10 Parts of income years not earlier income years
Any period that is shorter than an income year and that is
treated as if it were an income year for the purposes of item 5, 6 or 7 of this
Schedule is taken not to be an earlier income year for the purposes of section 160AFE
of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as amended by this Schedule.
11 Transitional provision for section 160AF
(1) This item applies if:
(a) because of item 5, 6 or 7, old
section 160AFE applies to a taxpayer as if a period were an income year (the notional
income year); and
(b) the taxpayer has an initial excess
credit (within the meaning of old section 160AFE) in relation to the notional
income year; and
(c) the taxpayer transfers all or part
(the extent of the transfer being the transfer amount) of that
initial excess credit under old section 160AFE for utilisation by another
company in the notional income year.
(2) Section 160AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act
1936 applies to the taxpayer for the year of income in which the notional
income year ends as if the amount of foreign tax paid by the taxpayer mentioned
in paragraph 160AF(1)(b) of that Act were reduced by the transfer amount.
(3) This item operates separately in relation to each
class of foreign income identified in subsection 160AF(7) of the Income Tax
Assessment Act 1936, as if the taxpayer’s foreign income of that class for
a year of income were the whole of the taxpayer’s foreign income for that year.

(b) otherwise—to acts done or omitted
to be done, or states of affairs existing, after the commencement of the
amendments.
6 Object
The object of this Part is to ensure that, despite the repeals
and amendments made by this Act, the full legal and administrative consequences
of:
(a) any act done or omitted to be
done; or
(b) any state of affairs existing; or
(c) any period ending;
before such a repeal or amendment applies, can continue to arise
and be carried out, directly or indirectly through an indefinite number of
steps, even if some or all of those steps are taken after the repeal or
amendment applies.
7 Making and amending
assessments, and doing other things, in relation to past matters
Even though an Act is repealed or amended by this Act, the repeal
or amendment is disregarded for the purpose of doing any of the following under
any Act or legislative instrument (within the meaning of the Legislative
Instruments Act 2003):
(a) making or amending an assessment
(including under a provision that is itself repealed or amended);
(b) exercising any right or power,
performing any obligation or duty or doing any other thing (including under a
provision that is itself repealed or amended);
in relation to any act done or omitted to be done, any state of
affairs existing, or any period ending, before the repeal or amendment applies.
Example 1: On 31 July 1999, Greg Ltd lodged its annual
return under former section 160ARE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
The return stated that the company had a credit on its franking account and
that no franking deficit tax was payable for the 1998‑99 franking year.
Under former section 160ARH of that Act, the Commissioner was taken to have
made an assessment consistent with the return.
Following an audit undertaken after the repeal
of Part IIIAA of that Act, the Commissioner concludes that Greg Ltd
fraudulently overfranked dividends it paid during the 1998‑99 franking
year, and had a franking account deficit for that franking year. As a result,
the Commissioner considers that franking deficit tax and a penalty by way of
additional tax are payable.
The Commissioner can amend the assessment
under former section 160ARN of that Act, because item 7 of this Schedule
disregards the repeal of that section for the purposes of making an assessment
in relation to the 1998‑99 franking year. Item 7 will also disregard the
repeal of Division 11 of former Part IIIAA to the extent necessary for the
Commissioner to assess Greg Ltd’s liability to a penalty by way of additional
tax.
Despite the repeal of sections 160ARU and
160ARV, item 9 will ensure that the general interest charge will accrue on the
unpaid franking deficit tax and penalty until they are paid.
Item 7 will also preserve Greg Ltd’s
right, under former section 160ART of that Act, to object against the
Commissioner’s amended assessment (including the penalty), since the objection
is the exercise of a right in relation to a franking year that ended before the
repeal of Part IIIAA.
Example 2: During the 1997‑98 income year, Duffy Property
Ltd withheld amounts from its employees’ wages as required by former Divisions 1AAA
and 2 of Part VI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936. The company
failed to notify the Commissioner of those amounts, and failed to remit them to
the Commissioner.
Following an audit undertaken after the
repeal of those Divisions, the Commissioner discovers that the withheld amounts
have not been remitted. The company’s records are incomplete and the
Commissioner is unable to completely ascertain the extent of its liability for
the withheld amounts. Under section 222AGA of that Act, the Commissioner makes
an estimate of the liability.
Item 7 will disregard the repeal of
section 220AAZA of that Act (which empowered the Commissioner to recover the
amount of the estimate). Even though the estimate is made after the repeal, it
relates to amounts withheld before the repeal.
8 Saving of provisions about effect of assessments
If a provision or part of a provision that is repealed or amended
by this Act deals with the effect of an assessment, the repeal or amendment is
disregarded in relation to assessments made, before or after the repeal or
amendment applies, in relation to any act done or omitted to be done, any state
of affairs existing, or any period ending, before the repeal or amendment
applies.
9 Saving of provisions about general interest charge,
failure to notify penalty or late reconciliation statement penalty
If:
(a) a provision or part of a provision
that is repealed or amended by this Act provides for the payment of:
(i) general interest
charge, failure to notify penalty or late reconciliation statement penalty (all
within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936); or
(ii) interest under the Taxation
(Interest on Overpayments and Early Payments) Act 1983; and
(b) in a particular case, the period
in respect of which the charge, penalty or interest is payable (whether under
the provision or under the Taxation Administration Act 1953) has not
begun, or has begun but not ended, when the provision is repealed or amended;
then, despite the repeal or amendment, the provision or part
continues to apply in the particular case until the end of the period.
10 Repeals disregarded for
the purposes of dependent provisions
If the operation of a provision (the subject provision)
of any Act or legislative instrument (within the meaning of the Legislative
Instruments Act 2003) made under any Act depends to any extent on an Act,
or a provision of an Act, that is repealed by this Act, the repeal is
disregarded so far as it affects the operation of the subject provision.
11 Schedule does not limit operation of section 8 of the Acts
Interpretation Act 1901
This Schedule does not limit the operation of section 8 of the Acts
Interpretation Act 1901.
12 Continued operation of repealed section 215 of the Income
Tax Assessment Act 1936
If, just before the repeal of section 215 of the Income Tax
Assessment Act 1936 by Schedule 1 to this Act, that section applied to:
(a) a liquidator of a company that was
being wound up; or
(b) a receiver for debenture holders
who had taken possession of assets of a company; or
(c) an agent for a non‑resident
who had been required by the agent’s principal to wind up the business or
realise the assets of the principal;
the section continues so to apply in spite of the repeal.
13 Continued operation of repealed sections 216 and 220 of
the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936
If, just before the repeal of section 216 or 220 of the Income
Tax Assessment Act 1936 by Schedule 1 to this Act, that section applied to
a deceased taxpayer, the section continues so to apply in spite of the repeal.
14 Resolutions to which section 221B of the Income Tax
Assessment Act 1936 applies
If a resolution to which section 221B of the Income Tax
Assessment Act 1936 applied was in force just before the repeal of that
section by Schedule 1 to this Act, section 446‑5 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation
Administration Act 1953 (as inserted by item 970 of Schedule 2 to this Act)
applies to the resolution after the repeal.
15 Extended operation of
subsection 265‑45(2) in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act
1953
In addition to the operation that it has apart from this item,
subsection 265‑45(2) in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act
1953 also applies to an amount of a liability (within the meaning of that
subsection) that a person pays after the repeal of section 259 of the Income
Tax Assessment Act 1936 by item 166 of Schedule 1 to this Act, if the
liability arose before 1 July 2000.

applied before the commencement of this item;
as if the repeal had not happened.

and amendments made by this Act, the full legal and administrative consequences
of:
(a) any act done or omitted to be
done; or
(b) any state of affairs existing; or
(c) any period ending;
before such a repeal or amendment applies, can continue to arise
and be carried out, directly or indirectly through an indefinite number of
steps, even if some or all of those steps are taken after the repeal or
amendment applies.
226 Making and amending assessments, and doing other things,
in relation to past matters
Even though an Act is repealed or amended by this Act, the repeal
or amendment is disregarded for the purpose of doing any of the following under
any Act or legislative instrument (within the meaning of the Legislative
Instruments Act 2003):
(a) making or amending an assessment
(including under a provision that is itself repealed or amended);
(b) exercising any right or power,
performing any obligation or duty or doing any other thing (including under a
provision that is itself repealed or amended);
in relation to any act done or omitted to be done, any state of
affairs existing, or any period ending, before the repeal or amendment applies.
Example: For the 2006‑07 income year, Smart Investor
Pty Ltd, an Australian resident private investment company, has assessable
foreign income in the passive income class on which it has paid foreign tax for
which it wishes to claim a foreign tax credit. The company also has a tax loss
for the year from its Australian investments. When it lodges its tax return for
the year it does not elect to claim a deduction for any of the tax loss under
section 79DA of the ITAA 1936, because the Australian tax payable on its
passive foreign income equals the foreign tax it has paid.
In 2009 the amount of foreign tax payable
in respect of some foreign rental income it had included in its return for the
2006‑07 year is reduced and Smart Investor receives a refund of the
difference in foreign tax. Smart Investor Pty Ltd then applies to be able to
make an election under section 79DA, that is, after the Tax Laws
Amendment (2007 Measures No. 4) Act 2007 (which repeals
section 79DA) receives Royal Assent. The Commissioner allows Smart
Investor to submit an election to claim a deduction for so much of its 2006‑07
tax loss as to reduce the amount of Australian tax payable on its 2006‑07
assessable foreign income to the revised foreign tax paid, by the end of 2009.
Despite the repeal of section 79DA,
item 226 allows the Commissioner to permit an election to be lodged after
the return for 2006‑07 has been lodged, and to amend Smart Investor’s assessment
for that year, because these actions relate to a thing done, and periods
ending, before the repeal of section 79DA applies.

to pay tax under section 102UK or 102UM of the Income Tax Assessment

to which:
(a) the trustee of the closely held
trust is assessed and liable to pay tax under subsection 98(4) of that Act in
respect of the share; or
(b) the share is reasonably
attributable to a part of the net income of another trust estate in respect of
which the trustee of the other trust estate is assessed and liable to pay tax
under that subsection; or

reasonably attributable to an amount from which an entity was required to
withhold an amount under Subdivision 12‑H in Schedule 1 to the Taxation

10 Transitional
(1) Subsections 102MB(2), (3) and (4), and
section 102MC, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 do not apply
to a unit trust for the application year if the trustee of the trust chooses
that those provisions are not to apply.
(2) A choice the trustee can make under
subitem (1) must be made by the day the trustee lodges the trustee’s
return of income for the application year.
(3) The way the trustee prepares the trustee’s return
of income for the application year is sufficient evidence of the making of the
choice.
Example: A unit trust that would cease to be a public
trading trust because of the safe harbour rule could make a choice under this
provision so that it is taxed as a public trading trust for the application
year.
