The Productivity Commission has released a new issues paper, Remote Area Tax Concessions and Payments, to assist individuals and organisations to prepare submissions to the study.
In the study, the Commission is to:

- examine the economic and employment impacts of the zone tax offset, FBT remote area concessions, and Remote Area Allowance, including the effect of applying indexation, in regional Australia;
- examine the operation of the Remote Area Allowance, which extends the benefits of the zone tax offset to income support recipients in remote zones;
- consider whether the zone tax offset, FBT remote area concessions, and the Remote Area Allowance are delivering on their policy objectives and whether those objectives remain appropriate in a contemporary Australia;
- consider if businesses in remote areas should be provided with similar support; and
- consider if there are alternative mechanisms to better provide this support to Australians residing in specified geographic areas.
Initial submissions are due by Monday 29 April 2019.
