There have been several new questions raised with a change in government in Australia and the impending election and if the balance of power shifts to the greens they have said there will be a higher mine tax coming.
Greens leader Senator Bob Brown has said in a recent interview that he thinks the mine tax should be levied so that the industry is forced to train more workers.
“I am very, very robustly pro small business, and I don’t see why small business should have to pay an extra one per cent tax because Julia Gillard backed down to the big miners.I don’t see why small business should be paying an extra two per cent tax because Tony Abbott won’t get a fair return from the big miners at all,” he said recently in an interview with news.smh.com.au.
