Division 9.6.3 Variation of nominal rent leases
Note 1 This division is a tax law under the Taxation Administration Act 1999. As a tax law, this division is subject to provisions of the Taxation Administration Act 1999 about the administration and enforcement of tax laws generally.
Note 2 The commissioner for revenue may delegate the commissioner’s functions under this division to the planning and land authority (see Taxation Administration Act 1999, s 78).
276 Definitions—div 9.6.3
In this division:
chargeable variation, of a nominal rent lease, means a variation of the lease other than—
(a) a variation, if—
(i) the only effect of the variation is to alter a common boundary between 2 or more adjoining leases; and
(ii) the authorised use of the land comprised in each adjoining lease (however described) is the same; and
(iii) none of the adjoining leases is a rural lease; or
(b) a variation if the only effect of the variation is to remove the lease’s concessional status; or
(c) a variation prescribed by regulation.
Note Variation, of a lease—see the dictionary.
LVC determination means a determination made under section 276D (Lease variation charges—LVC determination).
original decision—see section 277B (1) (b) (Lease variation charge under s 277—working out statement).
prescribed chargeable variation means a chargeable variation prescribed by regulation.
reconsideration application—see section 277C (5) (Lease variation charge under s 277—application for reconsideration).
s 277 chargeable variation means—
(a) a chargeable variation that is not a prescribed chargeable variation; or
(b) a prescribed chargeable variation if no lease variation charge is determined in an LVC determination for the variation.
working out statement—see section 277B (2) (Lease variation charge under s 277—working out statement).
276A Chargeable variation of nominal rent lease—lease variation charge
(1) The planning and land authority must not execute a chargeable variation of a nominal rent lease unless the lessee has paid the Territory the lease variation charge for the variation, less any remission under section 278, plus any increase under section 279.
Note If the planning and land authority has executed a variation of a nominal rent lease, the authority must lodge a copy of the variation with the registrar-general for registration. A lease variation takes effect on registration (see Land Titles Act 1925, s 72A).
(2) A lease variation charge is taken to be paid to the Territory if—
(a) the amount of the charge is waived by the Treasurer under the Financial Management Act 1996, section 131 (Waiver of debts etc); or
(b) part of the amount is waived and the rest of the amount is paid.
(3) Payment of the lease variation charge does not affect any right a person may have to apply for reconsideration under section 277D (Lease variation charge under s 277—requirements for reconsideration application).
276B Lease variation charges—amount payable
(1) The lease variation charge for a chargeable variation of a nominal rent lease is—
(a) for a prescribed chargeable variation for which a charge is determined in an LVC determination—the determined charge for the variation; or
(b) for a s 277 chargeable variation—the charge (if any) worked out under section 277 for the variation.
(2) If a development approval of a development application relates to more than 1 chargeable variation of a nominal rent lease, the lease variation charge is worked out as follows:
(a) if all the chargeable variations are prescribed chargeable variations for which a charge is determined in an LVC determination—in accordance with the LVC determination;
(b) if all the chargeable variations are s 277 chargeable variations—in accordance with section 277;
(c) if 1 or more are a kind of variation mentioned in paragraph (a) and 1 or more are a kind of variation mentioned in paragraph (b)—as prescribed by regulation.
276C Lease variation charges—notice of assessment
(1) On approval of a development application for a chargeable variation, the commissioner for revenue must give—
(a) a notice of assessment of the lease variation charge to the lessee; and
(b) if the development application in relation to the chargeable variation is made by someone other than the lessee—a copy of the notice to the applicant.
Note 1 The notice of assessment is an assessment under the Taxation Administration Act 1999 as if the lease variation charge were a tax payable by the lessee under that Act (see this Act, s 279B (1)). However, no actual liability to pay the lease variation charge arises on the giving of the notice (see s 279B (2)). The planning and land authority must not execute a variation of the lease unless the lessee has paid the assessed lease variation charge (see s 276A (1)).
Note 2 The commissioner for revenue must give a notice of assessment as soon as possible after the development application for the chargeable variation has been approved (see Legislation Act, s 151B).
(2) A lease variation charge is taken to be worked out—
(a) on the day the development approval of the chargeable variation is approved; or
(b) if another day is prescribed by regulation—on that day.
(3) A notice of assessment lapses on the earlier of—
(a) the day the lease variation charge is paid; or
(b) the day the development approval of the chargeable variation lapses.
276D Lease variation charges—LVC determination
(1) The Treasurer may determine a lease variation charge for a prescribed chargeable variation.
Note 1 The Legislation Act contains provisions about the making of determinations and regulations relating to fees (see pt 6.3).
Note 2 Power to make a statutory instrument (including a determination) includes the power to make different provision for different categories (see Legislation Act, s 48).
(2) A determination must be made in accordance with any guidelines approved under section 276E.
(3) If the Treasurer determines a lease variation charge for a prescribed chargeable variation, the Treasurer may determine a new lease variation charge.
(4) A determination is a disallowable instrument.
Note A disallowable instrument must be notified under the Legislation Act.
276E Lease variation charges—guidelines for LVC determination
(1) The Treasurer may approve guidelines for—
(a) how lease variation charges in the LVC determination must be determined; and
(b) how the LVC determination is prepared, including who the Treasurer may or must consult; and
(c) what must be included in the LVC determination.
Example—par (a)

Division 5.5.1A Chargeable variations
171 Exempt variations—Act, s 276, def chargeable variation, par (c)
A variation of a holding lease is prescribed.
172 Prescribed chargeable variations—Act, s 276, def prescribed chargeable variation
(1) The following chargeable variations are prescribed:
(a) if a development application relates to the chargeable variation of only 1 residential lease—a variation to increase the number of dwellings permitted on the land under the lease;
Example
a variation of a nominal rent lease to increase the maximum number of 20 residential units permitted on the land under the lease to 40 units
Note An example is part of the regulation, is not exhaustive and may extend, but does not limit, the meaning of the provision in which it appears (see Legislation Act, s 126 and s 132).
(b) if a development application relates to the chargeable variation of only 1 residential lease—a variation to limit the number of dwellings permitted on the land under the lease;
Example
A lease permits land to be used for residential purposes but does not state any limit on the number of permitted residences on the land. The lessee proposes to subdivide the land under the Unit Titles Act 2001. That Act, s 20 (2A) does not allow the lease to be subdivided unless the lease provides for the number of dwellings on the land. The lessee must vary the lease to limit the number of dwellings permitted on the land before subdividing the land.
(c) if a development application relates to the chargeable variation of only 1 non-residential lease—a chargeable variation of the lease that—
(i) increases the maximum gross floor area of any building or structure permitted for non-residential use on the land under the lease; or
(ii) has the effect of increasing the maximum gross floor area of any building or structure permitted for non-residential use on the land under the lease; or
(iii) increases or limits the number of dwellings permitted on the land under the lease;
(d) the consolidation of 2 or more nominal rent leases;
(e) the subdivision of 1 or more nominal rent leases.
Note 1 Gross floor area—see the territory plan (13 Definitions).
Note 2 If a chargeable variation is not a prescribed chargeable variation the lease variation charge is worked out under the Act, s 277 (see Act, s 276B).
(2) In this section:
non-residential lease means a lease other than a residential lease.
