SeaLink is a listed public company in the top 300 on the ASX and welcomes the opportunity to present a report on taxes paid in Australia and the Company’s tax strategy. SeaLink currently has no direct dealings overseas and therefore is limited to one tax jurisdiction. In this respect, we have adopted the recommendations of Part A of the Board of Tax’s voluntary “Tax Transparency Code” (“TTC”). SeaLink is considered to be a ‘medium’ business for the purposes of the TTC because its Australian turnover was greater than $100 million and less than $500 million during the 2016 year. We support the adoption of this voluntary code and believe it provides users with a comprehensive picture of SeaLink’s tax profile. SeaLink has a strong commitment to transparency and compliance from a regulatory and financial perspective and values the principle of being transparent with respect to its tax strategy and compliance. The Audit and Risk Committee has committed to update and review this report and approach annually.
