Explanatory note

This Supplementary Order Paper (SOP) proposes minor technical amendments to the Taxation (Business Tax, Exchange of Information, and Remedial Matters) Bill (the Bill).

This SOP proposes a change to the commencement date of 4 groups of amendments in the Bill. The amendments are for the Inland Revenue’s new technology platform START. The change aligns the commencement date of the amendments and the start of the administration of GST in START, namely 5 February 2017.

Also, minor amendments are proposed to support the operation of the Automatic Exchange of Information (AEOI) rules in the Bill. The proposed amendments are clarifications in respect of due dates and challenge rights, to ensure that the AEOI penalty provisions work correctly.

The SOP also corrects a minor fault of expression in the Bill.

Regulatory impact statement

Inland Revenue considers that a regulatory impact statement is not required to be prepared for this SOP.
