National Shelter’s Submission to the Inquiry into the Operation of the Capital Gains Tax Discount: Reforming Capital Gains Tax for housing justice and intergenerational equity
National Shelter welcomes the opportunity to make a submission to the Select Committee on the
Operation of the Capital Gains Tax (CGT) Discount.
National Shelter is a non-government peak organisation that aims to improve housing access,
affordability, appropriateness, safety and security for people living on lower incomes.
Given our focus and expertise on housing, this submission will focus on the CGT discount and its
effects as it relates to housing affordability and its impact on lower income households and inequality
in Australia.
