  1. GST

  1. Interpretation - The parties agree that: 
  1. any reference in this special condition to GST payable by an entity includes any GST payable by the representative member of any GST group of which that entity is a member;

  2. any reference in this special condition to input tax credits to which an entity is entitled will include input tax credits to which the representative member of any GST group of which that entity is a member is entitled;

  3. except where the context suggests otherwise, terms used in this clause 31.1 have the meanings given to those terms by the GST Act (as amended from time to time);

  4. any part of a supply that is treated as a separate supply for GST purposes (including attributing GST payable to tax periods) will be treated as a separate supply for the purposes of this clause 31.1; and

  5. any consideration that is specified to be inclusive of GST must not be taken into account in calculating the GST payable in relation to a supply for the purpose of this clause 31.1.

  1. Reimbursements and similar payments - Any payment or reimbursement required to be made under this agreement that is calculated by reference to a cost, expense, or other amount paid or incurred will be limited to the total cost, expense or amount less the amount of any input tax credit to which an entity is entitled for the acquisition to which the cost, expense or amount relates.
  2. GST payable - If GST is payable in relation to a supply made under or in connection with this agreement then any party (Recipient) that is required to provide consideration to another party (Supplier) for that supply must pay an additional amount to the Supplier equal to the amount of that GST at the same time as other consideration is to be provided for that supply or, if later, within 5 business days of the Supplier providing a valid Tax Invoice to the Recipient.
  3. Variation to GST payable - If the GST payable in relation to a supply made under or in connection with this agreement varies from the additional amount paid by the Recipient under this clause 31 then the Supplier will provide a corresponding refund or credit to, or will be entitled to receive the amount of that variation from, the Recipient.  Any ruling, advice, document or other information received by the Recipient from the Australian Taxation Office in relation to any supply made under this agreement will be conclusive as to the GST payable in relation to that supply.  Any payment, credit or refund under this paragraph is deemed to be a payment, credit or refund of the additional amount payable under clause 31.3.]
