dc.description.abstract | The Treasury Laws Amendment (Combating Illegal Phoenixing) Bill 2019 (Cth) was introduced into Parliament in mid-February 2019. The Explanatory Memorandum to the Bill explains that it aims to "improve the mechanisms available to combat illegal phoenix activity, specifically creditor-defeating dispositions" and "to ensure that misconduct can be addressed quickly and efficiently". The introduction of the Bill into Parliament follows several rounds of public and private consultation by Treasury during 2017 and 2018. Phoenix activity has been the subject of numerous inquiries over the past 20 years, including reports by PwC showing that phoenix activity costs the economy billions of dollars each year. | en_AU |
