Explanatory note
Non-resident fishers
This Supplementary Order Paper (SOP) proposes to extend the current tax treatment of non-resident seasonal workers under the Income Tax Act 2007 to non-resident fishers to whom immigration instructions relating to foreign crew of fishing vessels apply.
Amendments to clause 2(9) and (23B) of the Taxation (Annual Rates, Employee Allowances, and Remedial Matters) Bill (the Bill) provide appropriate commencement dates for the provisions.
Amendments to clause 123(16B), (30B), and (37B) relate to the defined term non-resident seasonal worker.
Clause 123C consequentially amends section YD 1 of the Income Tax Act 2007 in relation to the residence of natural persons.
Amendments to clauses 128 and 131 provide for the appropriate tax treatment in the Tax Administration Act 1994.
Amateur sports promoters
A new clause 29B is proposed to ensure that trusts can take advantage of the amateur sports promoter exemption in the Income Tax Act 2007. The proposed change to clause 2(12B) ensures an appropriate commencement date for the exemption.
Community housing trusts and companies
Changes proposed to clause 29(1): new section CW 42B and clause 159: new section 225D(1) allow up to 15% of the beneficiaries or clients of community housing entities to not meet the requirements of relevant regulations.
A proposed change to clause 159: new section 225D(2)(c) removes an example and clarifies the ambit of the regulation-making power that delineates the requirements for beneficiaries and clients of community housing trusts and companies
Remedial matters
This SOP proposes to amend clauses 2(25) and 9B of the Bill, and to insert a new clause 39BA, to ensure the provisions relating to leases of land, and particularly perpetual leases of land, are technically correct.
The SOP proposes to make minor technical amendments to clause 47B of the Bill, to ensure the correct functioning of the mixed-use assets rules.
Also, a date is corrected in clause 59D.
The SOP proposes to fix a fault in expression in clause 64(1), new section EW 15I(1)(b)(iii).
Amendments proposed for clauses 65, 66, 82 and 83 correct wrongly re-numbered cross-references.
A drafting cross-reference mistake is corrected in clause 75.
A new clause 80B is inserted to correct a minor wording defect in the provisions relating to property acquired after a taxpayer’s depreciable property was affected by the Canterbury earthquakes. Clause 2(13) is amended, to provide an appropriate commencement date for new clause 80B.
This SOP also proposes to insert a new clause 133B, to remedy section 81A of the Tax Administration Act 1994. A cross-reference to the Privacy Act 1993 was mistakenly omitted from section 81A of the Tax Administration Act 1994, and the proposed new clause 133B rectifies this, to ensure that section 81A operates as originally intended. A new clause 2(17B) is inserted, to provide an appropriate commencement date for new clause 133B.
This SOP also proposes changes to correct typographic errors in the Bill.
