What this addendum covers

The Australian Taxation Office has published an addendum to Law Companion Ruling LCR 2019/3, which deals with the OECD hybrid mismatch rules and the concept of a 'structured arrangement'.

What has changed

Effective date

The addendum applies from 1 January 2019, backdated to the same start date as the original ruling.

Corrected section reference

For those relying on LCR 2019/3 in relation to hybrid mismatch arrangement advice, the correct provision is section 832-210 of the ITAA 1997, not section 832-110 as previously written in the ruling.
