Premium selection test (2) The premium selection test is satisfied if the amount of the premium or premiums for the policy resulted from: (a) an *operator of the *compulsory third party scheme offering a number of different premium amounts to the entity liable to pay the premium or premiums; and (b) that entity selecting a premium amount: (i) that was offered on the basis that there would be an entitlement to an input tax credit for some or all of the amount; or (ii) that was offered on the basis that there would be no entitlement to an input tax credit for any of the amount.
