The ATO is currently looking at arrangements where rollovers are used, including arrangements where rollovers are used in conjunction with another rollover or other transactions, and the public advice and guidance that would be appropriate to provide clarity to the ATO's position on these arrangements. This includes rollovers that have a ‘nothing else’ requirement.
