Labor issues more than $82 million in incorrect land tax bills The Allan Labor Government's track record of tax grabs has hit a new low with the government finally revealing it incorrectly tried to collect over $82.1 million, at least, in land tax that was not owed. 1,549 objections lodged by Victorians disputing their 2023-24 land tax assessments were accepted in part or in full, representing $82.1 million in tax revenue incorrectly assessed. The true extent of Labor's botched land tax grab might never be known if landowners incorrectly charged did not lodge an objection. Shadow Minister for Finance, Bridget Vallence said: "Victorians are already at breaking point, and Labor's unfair and dishonest land tax grab has only caused more distress in a cost-of-living crisis. "I has been inundated with people distressed and shocked about their land tax bills. "The government's financial incompetence and budget blowouts have led to skyrocketing debt and it shows how desperate they have become making these huge land tax grabs. "They've now been exposed for having incorrectly charged people to the tune of tens of millions causing significant distress. "It's potentially much more because hundreds of objections have still not been assessed."
"Labor can't manage money and Victorians are paying the price."
