Full description
In April 1983 the Department of Finance was established to administer acts relating to stamp duties, pay-roll tax, land tax, business franchise licenses, charities, lotteries and art unions and to review and co-ordinate State taxation policies.
To enable it to perform its functions, a number of branches and offices attached to the Treasury were transferred to the new Department. These included the Poker Machine, Charities Administration, and Business Franchise Licenses Branches and Stamp Duties, Pay-roll Tax and Land Tax Offices. (1)
On 31 March 1988, the Department of Finance was abolished and all programs for which it was responsible were transferred to the Treasury. (2)
