  • Please note that the PDF version is the authorised version of this withdrawal notice.

Draft Taxation Determination TD 2007/D16 is withdrawn with effect from today.

1. Draft Taxation Determination TD 2007/D16 considered the potential application of section 177EA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to a particular type of convertible note that has certain features, including a 'dollar value' conversion mechanism (that are explained in the draft Determination).
