Abstract
The multinational tax package recently announced by the federal Labor party is clearly well-intentioned but it misses the point about big companies paying their fair share of tax. The proposed policy has some useful suggestions but fails to recognise how easy it is for big firms to restructure their finances and get around rule changes. And while Labor Senator Sam Dastyari has been vocal in the media about naming and shaming big companies that have aggressively minimised their tax, there’s no mention of such a policy in the publicly available documentation on Labor’s proposed package.
