The Great Gas Rort: Fixing the Petroleum Resources Rent Tax

Every year, the Commonwealth collects more revenue from HECS than it gets from the Petroleum Resource Rent Tax. The PRRT is so insufficient that gas companies love it!

Mark Ogge explains the Government's proposed changes, and how we can fix it to tax our gas companies fairly.

This was recorded on Tuesday 6th February 2024 and things may have changed since recording.
