Summary

Part of a package of four bills to re-introduce the biannual indexation of fuel excise and excise-equivalent fuel duties, the bill amends the:

to provide that the road user charge rate determined by the minister is rounded in the same way as fuel duty rates are rounded;
COAG Reform Fund Act 2008
, proposed
Fuel Indexation (Road Funding) Special Account Act 2015
and
Excise Act 1901
to make consequential amendments.
