Goods and Services Taxation

This unit explores how Australia’s GST system fits with global VAT and GST models, providing an intensive study of Australia's GST law, including its current scope and application to domestic supplies, exports and imports of goods and services, and a thorough analysis of prospects for future directions derived from international experience. The course will be led by Professor Rick Krever. Rick is a leading taxation law and policy expert. He has been closely involved in modern Australian tax reform initiatives for many years, including in his roles as a member of the Commonwealth Government's Taxation Law Improvement Project Consultative Committee and the Review of Business Taxation (Ralph Review). Professor Krever has been a professor-in-residence at both the Australian Taxation Office and the Australian Treasury, and has twice been seconded to the International Monetary Fund.
