Provisional income tax doubts from woolgrowers group

Victorian Graziers Association president urges withholding provisional income tax assessments until wool clips are sold or precise income estimates exist. He cites a 100 bale clip sold for £20,000 yielding £12,000 taxable income, then £4,000 taxable as prices drop. Provisional tax for 1950-51 would be about £7 100, with 10 percent extra, totaling £15,000 on £12,000 income. 1951-52 tax would be about £1 615, while provisional tax would be about £7,800.

Group Valuation Scheme Mooted By Councils

The North Eastern and Goulburn Valley Council's Developmental Association proposes a group valuation scheme to replace faulty local valuations. Dr C C Davy outlined plans to form grouped municipalities with a full time valuer, rotate across shires, and possibly expand state wide. Several council figures supported the move while Oxley opposed aligning with a State valuer.
