Tax Adviser Services
This is a new State Purchase Contract (SPC) arrangement under which eight (8) Service Providers have been appointed to a Tax Adviser Services Panel entitling them to provide tax adviser services to Government Entities.
State Government Entities eligible to use this SPC
Such Entities include:
- Budget Sector Agencies: each Victorian Government department (as defined in section 3 of the Financial Management Act 1994 (Vic)) and each office (as defined in section 16 of the Public Administration Act 2004 (Vic). All such Budget Sector Agencies are mandated to use this SPC;
- Government Owned Entities which are:
- A statutory corporation;
- A State owned company or a State body as those terms are defined in the State Owned Enterprises Act 1992 (Vic);
- A corporation limited by shares of which more than half are owned beneficially by the State; or
- A company limited by guarantee the majority of members of which are appointed by or on behalf of the State.
- Government Supported Organisations (e.g. charitable or other not-for-profit) that are funded, managed or sponsored by a Budget Sector Agency.
This SPC removes the need for Entities to negotiate individual contracts with terms and conditions for each provision of tax adviser services. Once a Tax Services Order is issued to a Panel member it is automatically subject to the provisions of the SPC.
