Hi there, me again
I think I missed something – I thought Op Shops run by charity were COMNV? Has Treasury since advised that they should be PUBLIC? And if so, do you think something extra will be added to Schedule 1 ‘Public Benefit land’ to cover a charity operated retail shop?
Also in regard to the universities that were originally listed as GOVT, eg; UNSW and Sydney University. I understand they are now PUBLIC as per # 8 on Schedule 1 Public Benefit Land. Does # 8 just cover university owned land that is the place of education, eg; Campus? UNSW owns loads of land off campus that isn’t a place of education, eg; off campus student housing and just regular houses leased through local real estate agents. Are we interpretting # 8 of Schedule 1 to cover every property owned by a university regardless of the property’s use? Or does the ‘profit/use’ test prevail for non-campus land?
Thank you, Cherie
