Notice of Withdrawal
The Ruling sets out the Commissioner's view on the application of the A New Tax System (Goods and Service Tax) Act 1999 to supplies of residential premises, commercial residential premises and long-term accommodation in commercial residential premises.
The matters addressed in the Ruling are now dealt with in: • Goods and Services Tax Ruling GSTR 2012/5 Goods and services tax: residential premises ; • Goods and Services Tax Ruling GSTR 2012/6 Goods and services tax: commercial residential premises ; and • Goods and Services Tax Ruling GSTR 2012/7 Goods and services tax: long-term accommodation in commercial residential premises ; which issue today. The Ruling has been withdrawn and replaced due to developments in Australian case law on GST since GSTR 2000/20 was issued and to provide greater clarity on the application of the Commissioner's views.
It is replaced by GSTR 2012/5, GSTR 2012/6 and GSTR 2012/7.
GSTR 2012/6 contains a transitional provision that will allow taxpayers to continue to rely on the view expressed in paragraph 132 in GSTR 2000/20 concerning 'home parks' until the Commissioner publishes a final view on this issue.
