Notice of Withdrawal

Goods and Services Tax Advice GSTA TPP 054 is withdrawn with effect from today.

1. GSTA TPP 054 considered a particular transaction and the associated supplies and the consideration for the supply. The advice explained that a supply is made for consideration when there is a sufficient nexus between that supply and the consideration provided by the recipient.

2. GSTA TPP 054 is withdrawn because the concepts of consideration and supplies considered in the advice are explained in existing public rulings.

3. These concepts are explained in Goods and Services Tax Ruling GSTR 2006/9 Goods and services tax ruling: supplies and Goods and Services Tax Ruling GSTR 2001/6 Goods and services tax ruling: non-monetary consideration.
