| Abstract: | Resource rents represent a return to the community for the exclusive use of resources
and therefore are quite distinct from the recovery of governmental regulatory or
operating costs. While the current framework for resource rents in Australian primary
industries is providing financial benefit for Australian governments, it is uncertain
whether the current policy settings are providing an appropriate community return.
This paper discusses the theory underpinning resource rents and conducts a multijurisdictional
comparison focusing on the minerals and fisheries industries to aid
analysis of the role resource rent taxation plays in the existing management of
Australian primary industries. |
