Summary

Edit

The majority voted against an amendment to the bill, which was introduced by Labor MP Andrew Leigh.

The bill implements the Common Reporting Standard, which is an agreement to exchange information about their residents' assets and incomes. Mr Leigh's amendment would have changed the date when the bill would commence from 2019 to 2018.

This change would have meant that Australia's implementation of the Common Reporting Standard would be at the same time as 40 other countries in 2018, which Senator Leigh explained would "ensure that Australia is not a laggard when it comes to dealing with multinational tax avoidance".
