LINA’s submission to consultation on a minimum tax on discretionary trusts.
LINA’s submission expresses concern that a minimum tax on discretionary trusts will impact charitable giving.
To mitigate this, the government should provide for distributions to DGR-endorsed charities to be tax deductible, which must be coupled with reform of the DGR system.
These reforms will help facilitate the growth of a not-for-profit news sector in Australia, supporting community access to public interest journalism and the government’s objectives to increase philanthropic giving.
Nell leads LINA’s media and government relations and policy contributions to strengthen diversity within Australia’s news media landscape and highlight the importance of public interest journalism.
Nell has a background in communications and marketing, and is passionate about the power of storytelling to inspire social change. She holds degrees in documentary filmmaking and journalism and has conducted surveys examining the work of journalists and the media landscape in Australia.
