Mobile Home Tax Scrapped

A tax which would have increased the cost-of-living to Hunter residents residing in mobile homes has been scrapped. 

The Australian Taxation Office have decided not to apply GST fees to rented movable dwellings, removing months of angst and uncertainty. 

The announcement follows numerous submissions from those living in the homes, as well as park owners, who were adamant the cost rise would make it unaffordable to continue living in their estates.
