The Federal Government has released data showing that company tax revenue for 2017-18 will be $A1.1bn higher than had been forecast in its May 2018 Budget. Finance Minister Mathias Cormann has also advised that company tax revenue for 2017-18 is expected to be $A9.2bn higher than the $A78.6bn that the government had forecast in its Budget update in late 2016. Cormann also revealed that a crackdown on tax avoidance has resulted in the recovery of $A2.7bn in unpaid taxes from multinationals.
