New Zealand law explained for everyone
The law says that some changes need to be made to other laws. These changes are listed in two places: Schedule 49 and Schedule 50. Schedule 49 tells you about changes to various laws, while Schedule 50 is specifically about changes to the Tax Administration Act 1994.
The changes to the Tax Administration Act 1994 are a bit special. They only apply to taxes on money you earn in the 2008-2009 tax year and after that. This is true unless the context of the law says it should be different.
When you’re reading about these changes, you’ll see links to the specific parts of the law that are being changed. This can help you understand exactly what’s being updated.
