State Revenue and Other Legislation Amendment (Budget Measures) Act 2006

State Revenue and Other Legislation Amendment (Budget Measures) Act 2006 (NSW)

This is a NSW State Government amendment Act — essentially a package of changes to existing revenue and other laws, bundled together as part of the 2006 State Budget.

What does it do? This type of legislation is a common budget mechanism: rather than passing dozens of separate laws, the government groups multiple amendments to existing tax and revenue laws into one Act. It likely adjusted things like stamp duty (a tax on property and some transactions), payroll tax (a tax businesses pay on wages), or other state taxes and fees — though the specific changes are contained in the schedules (attached sections) of the Act itself, which are not fully displayed here.

Who does it affect? Depending on the specific amendments made, it could affect:

• Property buyers and sellers (if stamp duty thresholds or rates changed)
• Businesses (if payroll tax rules were adjusted)
• NSW residents and organisations subject to any state revenue laws that were amended

Key technical note: The Act contains a self-destruct clause — it is designed to automatically repeal (cancel) itself once all of its changes have fully taken effect. This is standard practice: once the amendments are absorbed into the laws they changed, the amending Act itself is no longer needed.
