Preamble

Draft Taxation Determinations (TDs) present the preliminary, though considered, views of the ATO. Draft TDs may not be relied on; only final TDs are authoritative statements of the ATO.

1. The registered nominee only needs to sign his or her own name. The name of the partnership or company may be stamped or typed on the tax agent's certificate.

2. Sub-section 165(1A) requires that the certificate be signed in the name of the partnership or company. This is not taken to mean that the nominee must physically write out that name.
