The Australian National Audit Office (ANAO) is calling for contributions to its audit of the management of small business tax debt arising from compliance activities, to assess the effectiveness of the Australian Taxation Office’s (ATO’s) management of small business tax debt arising from compliance activities.

Audit criteria

The ANAO proposes to examine:

  • Does the ATO have effective arrangements for managing small business tax debt arising from compliance activities?
  • Have the ATO’s processes provided for consistent management of small business tax debt arising from compliance activities?
  • Does the ATO effectively monitor and report on the collection of small business tax debt arising from compliance activities?

Contribute to this audit

The ANAO welcomes members of the public contributing information for consideration when conducting performance audits. Performance audits involve the independent and objective assessment of the administration of an entity or body’s programs, policies, projects or activities. They also examine how well administrative support systems operate.

The ANAO does not have a role in commenting on the merits of government policy but focuses on assessing the efficient and effective implementation of government programs, including the achievement of their intended benefits.

The audit is currently collecting audit evidence and is seeking input from members of the public. The ANAO particularly values information that deals with significant matters or insights into the administration of the subject of this audit.
