LANDGATE OFFICES —
SALE
1191. Hon NEIL THOMSON to the minister representing the
Minister for Finance:
I refer to the sale of the Midland
Landgate building.
(1) How much stamp duty was paid on
the transaction?
(2) Does this reflect the sale
price or the market value?
Hon
STEPHEN DAWSON replied:
I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question. The Department of Finance advises the following.
(1)–(2) The amount of duty paid by the purchaser of the
Midland Landgate building is information obtained by the Commissioner of
State Revenue under the Duties Act 2008. However, section 114(1) of the
Taxation Administration Act imposes a duty of confidentiality on the
commissioner from releasing information obtained under a taxation act
concerning the affairs of a person.
