Title
Bills — Treasury Laws Amendment (Working Holiday Maker Employer Register) Bill 2017; Second Reading- Treasury Laws Amendment (Working Holiday Maker Employer Register) Bill 2017 - Second Reading - Agree with bill's main idea
Description
<p class='motion-notice motion-notice-truncated'>Long debate text truncated.</p>- The majority voted to agree with [the bill's](http://parlinfo.aph.gov.au/parlInfo/search/display/display.w3p;query=Id%3A%22legislation%2Fbillhome%2Fr5816%22) main idea. In parliamentary jargon, they voted to read the bill [for a second time](https://www.peo.gov.au/learning/fact-sheets/making-a-law.html). This means that they can now discuss the bill in more detail.
- ### What is the bill's main idea?
- The bill was introduced to tighten the information disclosure requirements for the working holiday maker employer register. Firstly, it will ensure that details of the working holiday maker employer register will not be able to be made publicly available. Secondly, it'll ensure that information sharing between the Australian Tax Office (ATO) and the Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) is only undertaken in situations in which an entity is non-compliant, or is reasonably suspected of non-compliance, with a tax law.
