Schedule 1   Interest withholding tax exemptions

Income Tax Assessment Act 1936

5   After subsection 128F(1A)

Insert:

(1B) If:

(a) some or all of the transfer price (within the meaning of section 128AA) of a debenture is taken under that section to be income that consists of interest; and

(b) the issue of the debenture satisfies the public offer test set out in subsection (3) or (4);

this section applies to the interest.

Note: Subsection (6) does not apply to the interest because that subsection deals only with interest paid on a debenture by the issuing company.
