SECTION 615-65   Consequences for the interposed company  

615-65(1)    
This section applies if the interposed company so chooses under subsection 615-30(1) .

615-65(2)    
A number of the *shares or units that the interposed company owns in the original entity (immediately after the completion time) are taken to have been *acquired before 20 September 1985 if any of the original entity ' s assets as at the completion time were acquired by it before that day.

Note:

The first element of the *reduced cost base of those shares or units is worked out similarly.

Note:
