Summary

Edit

The majority voted in favour of a motion "schedule 4 stand as amended." In other words, they voted to keep the amended schedule 4 in the bill. This vote was put after West Australian Senator [Dean Smith](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/wa/dean_smith (Liberal) proposed that schedule 4 be opposed.

What is Schedule 4?

According to the bills digest:

Schedule 4 amends the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (ITAA 1936) and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (ITAA 1997) so that no part of an off-market share buy-back can be taken to be a dividend.

It was further amended by the Government.
