We have an extensive knowledge of sector tax issues.

The increasing complexity of New Zealand’s tax regime exposes the public sector to greater financial and political risk than ever before.

Although your organisation may only be subject to income tax on certain sources of income, you have the same obligations as other businesses and employers to correctly account for GST, FBT, PAYE, and withholding tax. You are also subject to the same potentially significant penalty and interest charges for non-compliance. As the leading provider of audit services to the Local Government sector, we have developed an extensive knowledge of sector tax issues.

In addition to reviewing selected tax issues as part of the audit, we also provide a range of independent tax assurance services.

Our experience has been that these reviews have brought real benefits to our clients, including the identification of tax refunds and the mitigation of future tax penalties.
