To the Honourable the President and Members of the Senate assembled in Parliament:

This petition of the undersigned draws to the attention of the Senate that under current legislation the GST will not be included on dockets and that consumers will not know how much GST they are being charged, or whether they are being charged correctly.

Your petitioners therefore request the Senate that when a business provides a consumer with a receipt or docket issued in respect of a taxable supply the receipt or docket must separately include:

the price of the goods or services excluding the GST;

the amount of the GST; and

the total price including the GST.

by the President (from 16 citizens).
