ACT Stamp Duty: whether a collateral loan security is subject to duty where the primary loan security was executed before 1 January 1986

Miscellaneous Taxation Ruling MT 2020 applied only for the purposes of the application of the Australian Capital Territory Taxation (Administration) Act 1969 . The provisions of this Act are no longer administered by the Commissioner of Taxation. Part VIII of the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 2) 1987 (No. 62 of 1987) terminated the imposition of taxes and duties under certain laws relating to the Australian Capital Territory (including the Australian Capital Territory Stamp Duty Act 1969 ) and provided for the transfer of the administration of those laws from the Commissioner of Taxation to the Commissioner for ACT Revenue. The transfer became effective on 1 September 1987. The Ruling ceased to have effect from that date.

MT 2020 was the subject of a Notice of Archival on 9 September 1993.

MT 2020 is now being withdrawn in accordance with paragraph 5 of Addendum No. 2 to Miscellaneous Taxation Ruling MT 2005 Freedom of Information Act 1982 . Taxation Rulings - pre 1 December 1982 series (referred to for convenience as conversion rulings), which states: We will withdraw progressively all Rulings in the MT series for which we have issued Notices of Archival.
