Principal Place of Residence Exemption Reinstatement legislation introduced

Members are advised to note clause 28 of the Bill which deals with replacing contracts existing on 1 July 2012, or contracts formed on or after that date arising from the exercise of an option or otherwise under an arrangement made before 1 July.
