Mining Resources Tax
Don’t believe any of the hysteria being generated by the major mining multinationals, about the new Mining Resources Tax.
We are urging the Government to stand up to the big mining giants and ensure a better deal for Australia and our mining communities from the billions of dollars in profits the resources boom is generating.
The Minerals Resource Rent Tax Bill 2011 and related bills: Submission to Senate Economics Committee
December 2011
The introduction of resource rent taxation is long overdue and is one of the more obvious and pressing economic reforms that should be pursued by government.
The CFMEU broadly supports an efficient and effective taxation regime that is progressive, redistributive, enables sustainable growth and the achievement of social justice and equal opportunity.
Australia's mineral wealth belongs to its people and they should receive a good return for its exploitation.
