Should Churches be Taxed?

Many charitable organisations in Australia exist for the benefit of society – helping people who are usually disadvantaged in some way and who need help and assistance.

For this reason, many are eligible for various tax exemptions, including churches.

If the primary aim of a church is to advance their religion, then why are they still exempt from paying certain taxes?

Guest: Dale Boccabella is an Associate Professor of Taxation Law at UNSW Sydney.

Presenter: Warren Andrew
