Mr Eoin Cameron
asked the Assistant Treasurer, upon notice, on 6 May, 1996:
(1) How many (a) PAYE and (b) other taxpayers were there in (i) 1979-80, (ii) 1982-83, (iii) 1985-86, (iv) 1988-89, (v) 1991-92 and (vi) 1994-95.
(2) What total revenue, adjusted to 1996 values, was derived from (a) PAYE taxpayers and (b) all other tax revenue sources in (i) 1979-80, (ii) 1982-83, (iii) 1985-86, (iv) 1988-89, (v) 1991-92 and (vi) 1994-95.
Mr Costello
—The Assistant Treasurer has provided the following answer to the honourable member's question:
(1) Statistics are not yet available for the 1994-95 income year. The following table reflects the number of taxpayers, both taxable and non-taxable for 1979-80 to 1991-92:
| 1979-80 | 1982-83 | 1985-86 | 1988-89 | 1991-92 | |
| ('000s) | ('000s) | ('000s) | ('000s) | ('000s) | |
| PAYE taxpayers | 5449 | 5798 | 6407 | 7304 | 7287 |
| Other taxpayers | 1524 | 1742 | 1794 | 1953 | 2002 |
(2) The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) does not have statistics on the total revenue derived from PAYE taxpayers (ie taxpayers with some tax instalment deduction credit) in the years requested.
Due to differences in timing of income years, it is not possible to calculate the total revenue derived from all other tax sources for a particular income year.
However, the ATO have provided a split between collections of tax instalment deductions and all other tax revenue received in each of the specified years on a financial year basis.
The following table reflects the revenue adjusted to 1996 values(1):
| 1979-80 | 1982-83 | 1985-86 | 1988-89 | 1991-92 | |
| ($m) | ($m) | ($m) | ($m) | ($m) | |
| Gross PAYE(2) | 32886 | 37659 | 43093 | 49663 | 46650 |
| Other revenue(3) | 18226 | 19863 | 25192 | 33825 | 31599 |
(1) Adjustment to 1996 values was made using the GNFP(E) seasonally adjusted series as advised by Fiscal Policy Division, The Treasury.
(2) Gross PAYE revenue is collections of tax instalment deductions which have been made at source by employers and remitted to the ATO.
(3) Includes refunds to taxpayers with tax instalment deduction credits from the previous year's Gross PAYE collections.
