for that purpose; and

(a)
a

the

subsidiary member of the group;
17
reduce the tax cost setting amount of the asset by the amount of the

gain (but not below zero).
19
Note:
Reducing the tax cost setting amount of the asset will also reduce the

21
of the capital gain might be reduced to nil.
22

342-5 Object of this Subdivision
1
The object of this Subdivision is to facilitate the starting, conduct
2
and ending of proceedings under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002
3
by allowing the Commissioner to waive the right to payment of
4
certain liabilities to the Commonwealth arising under
*
taxation
5
laws.
6
Note:
The Commissioner may also exercise other powers so as to facilitate
7
the starting, conduct and ending of proceedings under the Proceeds of
8
Crime Act 2002. Examples of those other powers include:
9
(a) the power under section 255-10 to defer the time a tax-related
10
liability is due and payable; and
11
(b) the power under section 8AAG to remit general interest charge.
12
342-10 Power to waive right to payment of tax-related liability
13
(1) The Commissioner may waive the Commonwealth's right to
14
payment of all or part of a
*
tax-related liability if the
15
Commissioner is satisfied that:
16
(a) the waiver will facilitate the starting, conduct or ending (by
17
settlement or otherwise) of proceedings under the Proceeds
18
of Crime Act 2002; and
19
(b) the liability is connected with circumstances associated with
20
the proceedings.
21
Note:
The Commissioner may waive the right to payment only after the
22
liability has arisen, but may do so whether or not the liability is due
23
and payable.
24
Example: A liability is connected with circumstances associated with the
25
proceedings if the liability arose because of activities constituting an
26
offence to which the proceedings relate.
27
(2) In deciding whether to waive the right, the Commissioner must
28
consider:
29
(a) the amount the Commonwealth will forgo as a result of the
30
waiver and the time the Commonwealth could reasonably be
31
expected to receive that amount apart from the waiver; and
32
(b) the amount the Commonwealth could reasonably be expected
33
to receive as a result of the proceedings and the time the
34
Commonwealth could reasonably be expected to receive that
35
amount.
36
(3) Subsection (2) does not limit the matters that the Commissioner
37
may consider in making the decision.
