SUPERANNUATION CONTRIBUTIONS TAX (ASSESSMENT AND COLLECTION) ACT 1997 - SECT 24

Objections against assessments

Member or superannuation provider may object against assessment

  (1)   If:

  (a)   an assessment of surcharge on a member's surchargeable contributions is made; and

  (b)   the member, or a superannuation provider who is the holder of the contributions, is dissatisfied with the assessment;

the member or provider may object against the assessment in the way set out in Part   IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953 .

Superannuation provider may object against class of assessments

  (2)   An objection made by a superannuation provider may relate to all the assessments included in a class of assessments. A decision on the objection is taken to be a single decision for the purpose of calculating any fee payable in respect of lodging a reference or appeal in respect of the decision.

Matters on which Commissioner may rely in deciding an objection

  (3)   In making a decision on the objection in so far as the objection relates to the calculation of the member's adjusted taxable income, the Commissioner is entitled to rely on:

  (a)   the latest assessment of the member's taxable income under the Income Tax Assessment Act; and

  (b)   the latest statement of the member's surchargeable contributions given to the Commissioner by the superannuation provider.

Note:   If a member is dissatisfied with an assessment in so far as it relates to the calculation of the member's surchargeable contributions, as based on an amount or amounts set out in a statement given to the Commissioner by a superannuation provider under section   13, the member may make a complaint under the AFCA scheme (within the meaning of the Corporations Act 2001 ) about the unfairness or unreasonableness of the superannuation provider's decision to set out the amount or any of the amounts in the statement.
