Taxation Revenue Taxation revenue consists of compulsory levies imposed by Government to raise revenue used to provide public services to the Territory community. Taxation revenue does not relate to a payment for goods and services provided. Taxation revenue includes revenue raised from Northern Territory Government levies and does not include Commonwealth taxes. The only significant taxation revenue related policy variation since the May 2011 Budget is the Territory Governments decision to defer the abolition of stamp duty on non-land business property (previously scheduled for 1July 2012) until the Territory Budget situation permits the cost of abolition. More detail on this decision is included in BudgetPaperNo.2. Total taxation revenue collections are forecast to increase by $27.5million, or around 5.7percent, in 2012-13. Payroll tax is the most significant component in the taxation revenue category. The forecast for 2012-13 comprises: $176.8million from private sector businesses and the public financial and nonfinancial corporation sectors; and $76.1million from general government agencies and business divisions.
