What will the seminar cover?
Under the ATO’s Director Penalty regime company directors can be personally liable for unpaid GST, super guarantee charge, or PAYG withholding amounts. The ATO can commence court proceedings to recover director penalties once they have issued a director penalty notice (DPN).
While the ATO put most overdue tax collection on hold during the pandemic, it is now ramping up activity, with an ever-increasing number of DPNs being issued to reduce the outstanding liabilities of companies.
You will hear about:
- Recent developments with the use of DPNs by the ATO.
- The legal context to DPNs and Lockdown DPNs.
- What are the options when a DPN is received.
- Are there possible defences or avenues of redress.
- Practical examples of the issues that arise.
