Fuel tax credit and the Greenhouse Challenge Plus Program
The Greenhouse Challenge Plus Program ceased on 1 July 2009 and is not being replaced by an alternative scheme.
The Tax Law Amendment (2009 Measures No 2) Act 2009 was passed by Parliament and received Royal Assent on 23 June 2009. This Act removes the need for entities who claim over $3 million in fuel tax credits in a financial year to join the Greenhouse Challenge Plus Program.
If you are already a member of the program, you should continue to claim fuel tax credits as you usually would. However, this change means you no longer have to meet the requirements of the program in order to claim more than $3 million in fuel tax credits in a financial year.
