Labor’s trust tax plan ‘risks jobs and housing supply’

详细摘要

Business and industry groups have united to warn that the changes put thousands of businesses at risk and will cause housing projects to fall.

Major business and industry groups have united to warn that Labor’s proposed discretionary trust tax changes will threaten thousands of small businesses, jobs and the housing supply if approved by the Senate in their current form.
