Don’t rush it though. Stamp duty was introduced in 1694 (not a typo) as a ‘temporary tax on parchments’. No rush.

The sharp drop in stamp duty shows the folly of relying on a highly cyclical tax to pay for state-delivered essential services. States should now set out a transition to a more stable, less distortive land tax and the feds should back them.

Blame vague climate laws for High Court rewriting them afr.com/policy/energy-… - we all live on the same planet and so exported scope 3 emissions might as well be emitted here in Australia. Global warming doesn't respect borders or human constructs like the Paris Agreement.
www.afr.com Blame vague climate laws for High Court rewriting them The more governments rely on open-ended concepts while leaving contentious questions unresolved, the more political disputes will migrate into the courts.
