This week we are joined on the MiningNewsPremium.net Strictly Boardroom column by local political consultant, Ian Radisich, to discuss the proposed ‘mining tax’ put forward as a policy by the Nationals Party for the upcoming elections here in Western Australia. The idea is to increase taxation on the iron ore sector to cover increasing government debts following a decline in commodity prices. The mining sector is obviously not happy with this, however, we thought this issue deserved some more critical analysis.
