About the Webinar

The Land Tax Management Act 1956 (NSW) provides an exemption from land tax for land used for primary production. However, what constitutes “primary production” is not always clear cut and the increase in leasing arrangements from farmers to third parties for activities such as energy production has also led to confusion about tax liability. This session will explore in detail the primary production land tax exemption, including:

  • What is primary production for the purposes of the legislation?
  • Does the zoning of the land matter?
  • What if the land is held by a trust?
  • What level of activity is sufficient to constitute a business?
  • Do you need to make a profit to obtain an exemption?
  • Can a developer claim an exemption? Case study of Chief Commissioner of State Revenue v Metricon Qld Pty Ltd [2017] NSWCA 11
  • Recent State Revenue Office rulings and relevant cases
