I refer to the government's 23 April 2020 announcement of $100 million in land tax relief grants, and I ask: (a) Please detail the number of applications that have been
received and what is the total amount sought from these applications.; (b) How much land tax relief has so far been approved and how many applicants have been successful; (c) Does the Government expect to expend its full $100 million relief package for commercial landlords; and (d) If not, will the Government consider loosening the criteria for land tax
concession eligibility to ensure the $100 million in land tax relief is
delivered, especially to those landlords whose main source of income is
from commercial property?
