40 Entering into a land transfer agreement does not discharge liability to pay levy
The entering into a land transfer agreement by a person to meet the whole or part of a liability to pay the levy does not discharge the person from that liability.
It is not until the person performs their obligations in accordance with the land transfer agreement that the amount agreed to be met under the agreement can be taken to be a payment towards the levy owed—see section 41.
