DUTIES ACT 2008 - SECT 266FA

266FA .         Concessional under construction agreement

        (1)         An agreement for the transfer of dutiable property is a concessional under construction agreement if the agreement is —

            (a)         an agreement for the purchase, from the owner of land to be subdivided by the registration of a multi-tiered scheme or an amendment of a multi-tiered scheme, of a lot in the scheme on which there will be a new residential unit or apartment; and

            (b)         entered into after development for the subdivision commences, but before development for the subdivision is completed; and

            (c)         entered into in the period beginning on 31 August 2023 and ending on 30 June 2025.

        (2)         An agreement (the new agreement ) for the transfer of dutiable property is also a concessional under construction agreement if —

            (a)         subsection (1)(a) and (b) apply to the new agreement; and

            (b)         the new agreement is substantially similar in effect to an earlier cancelled transaction that —

                  (i)         was a concessional under construction agreement under subsection (1); and

                  (ii)         was between all of the same parties as the parties to the new agreement, except that the seller was different.

        (3)         Despite subsections (1) and (2), an agreement (the relevant agreement ) to which either of those subsections applies is not a concessional under construction agreement if the relevant agreement is —

            (a)         a concessional pre-construction agreement to which section 266F(2) applies; or

            (b)         a replacement transaction in relation to a cancelled transaction; or

            (c)         a subsale transaction in relation to a cancelled transaction that was a concessional off-the-plan agreement; or

            (d)         substantially similar in effect to an earlier cancelled transaction that —

                  (i)         was between all of the same parties as the parties to the relevant agreement, except that the seller was different; and

                  (ii)         was entered into before 31 August 2023.
