Summary

Introduced with the Superannuation Supervisory Levy Imposition Amendment Bill 2012, the bill amends the:

Retirement Savings Accounts Act 1997
and
Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993
to: establish a framework to implement the superannuation data and payment regulations and standards that will apply to specified superannuation transactions undertaken by superannuation entities, retirement savings account providers and employers; and make consequential amendments;
Taxation Administration Act 1953
to provide for an administrative penalty framework for non-compliance with the superannuation data and payment regulations and standards; and
Australian Prudential Regulation Authority Act 1998
to: enable costs associated with the SuperStream measures to be included in the minister’s determination specifying the amount of levy payable to the Commonwealth; enable the minister to make a determination that specifies the proportion of levy money paid to the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) that is to be credited to the APRA Special Account; and insert a definition of the measures covered by SuperStream.

We acknowledge the traditional owners and custodians of country throughout Australia and acknowledge their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to the people, the cultures and the elders past, present and emerging.
