Mr COMBET (Charlton—Minister for Climate Change and Energy Efficiency) (13:26): I move:
That this bill be now read a second time.
This bill anticipates the possibility that, under the carbon pricing mechanism, the charge payable by a person to the Commonwealth for issue of a carbon unit as the result of an auction, or for a fixed charge, or on a unit shortfall, is a duty of customs within the meaning of section 55 of the Constitution.
Applying abundant caution, the bill caters for the possibility that such a charge is, in whole or in part, both a duty of customs and a tax that is not a duty of customs by providing for the imposition of such a charge under the bill. I commend the bill to the House.
Debate adjourned.
