Journalists to facilitate tax forum
The Government has announced its October Tax Forum will be facilitated by economic commentator and founder of ipac securities Paul Clitheroe, along with Fairfax journalist Michael Pascoe.
In a joint announcement with the Treasurer, the Assistant Treasurer Bill Shorten said Clitheroe and Pascoe would "bring many years of experience in taxation, finance and the media" to their roles as facilitators at the forum.
The forum, to be held in Canberra on 4-5 October, will continue the discussion the Government initiated with the Australia's Future Tax System Review, which was released last year.
The program of the forum includes six major topics: personal tax, transfer payments, business tax, state taxes, environmental and social taxes, and tax system governance.
