Superannuation information for family law proceedings: exposure draft

On 31 May 2021 Treasury released exposure draft Treasury Laws Amendment (Measures for Consultation) Bill 2021: Superannuation information for family law proceedings.

The draft legislation proposes to amend the TAA 1953 and the Family Law Act 1975. The amendment is to create an “information sharing mechanism”, to allow the family law courts (including court registry staff) to access certain superannuation information held by the ATO for the purposes of permitted family law proceedings.
