GST and payments for seconded employees
22 October 2013

Issue

Is a government agency, making a taxable supply under section 9-5 of the A New Tax System (Goods and Services tax) Act 1999 (GST Act), when it receives payment for the secondment of its employees to another government entity?

Decision

No, the payment received is not consideration for a supply.
