Once again the federal election is on the agenda – is it really 3 years since the last one? Doesn’t time fly when we are having a taxing time. One of the key local issues is Fringe Benefits Tax and how we can use this to help stimulate regional Australia. FBT on motor vehicles is no longer available for employers for Novated vehicle leases. This was one of the key drives in the recruitment of employees in regional Australia .Perhaps this should have been targeted towards Australian produced vehicles only.
time flies at tax time
A SUGGESTED LIST FOR BOTH SIDES OF POLITICS IS - Remove the FBT on houses for employees working in regional Australia. Look at increasing relief for remote areas such as Central Queensland. There is a $57 zone allowance for Airlie Beach but this doesn’t apply across Central Queensland. - Consider incentives for investing in regional Australia for individuals and superannuation. - Look at the incentives to lower costs of flights to regional centres where it is sometimes cheaper to fly to Europe than Central Queensland.
Apart from that we really do need to look at the cost of living in regional centres & how it can be made more affordable and liveable.
LOOKING FOR SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR TAX PROBLEMS? WANTING TO KNOW ABOUT SUPERANNUATION? LOOKING FOR AN ACCOUNTANT WHO THINKS OUTSIDE THE BOX?

The Whitsundays is perfectly placed as the region to live, work, play and invest. Labelled as the Economic Capital of Queensland, the Whitsunday region is the only four pillar area in the state with a high degree of tourism, agriculture, mining and construction. Whitsunday Regional Council has launched a new Economic Development Incentives Policy offering a 50 per cent discount on adopted infrastructure charges to promote new development and business activity within the region. The incentives have been targeted
15/08/13 3:55 PM
specifically at generating new types of business employment opportunities, both short and long term, and diversification of the current market. The discount will be applied to adopted infrastructure development charges for new development applications made for particular types of economic and business generating development. In order to obtain the discount it is necessary that development be completed and in operation by 30 June 2016. For further information, visit www.whitsundayrc.qld.gov.au

Busting the Lyric myths I have written in the past about the Lyric, a semipermanent, disposable hearing aid that sits deep into the ear canal just millimetres away from the ear drum. We have just celebrated our first anniversary since we first began fitting Lyric and we are now one of the top three Lyric clinics in the country. I have personally fitted more Lyrics than anyone else in the country. However, even after 12 months there is still a lot of false and misleading information given to the general public, mostly by hearing clinics that are unable fit Lyric themselves, or have not read peer-reviewed published articles on extended-wear hearing devices such as Lyric. There are also a small number of Lyric clinics that are not using effective candidacy or fitting techniques and blame the Lyric for poor outcomes when it is more likely the former. Today I am going to bust some of the most common myths about Lyric. Is Lyric Safe? The first extended wear hearing aids
such as Lyric, were first fitted in 2001 and then launched on a commercial basis in 2007. The gap between 2001 and 2007 was spent fitting thousands of Lyric in clinical trials to ascertain it’s safely as the US FDA has one of the strictest patient safety criteria in the world. These trials found the Lyric to be a completely safe hearing device with no long-term adverse effects in wearing the devices for any length of time. In fact there are thousands of Lyric wearers in the US that have been wearing Lyric now non-stop for nearly 15 years without any problems. After fitting hundreds of Lyrics I have not had a single incident where there has been a major issue or damage to the ear canal or ear drum. We live in the tropics. Won’t the humidity potentially cause reliability or infection issues? After 12 months we have not had a single issue with reliability caused by humidity. The latest third generation Lyric has now been engineered to block moisture and wax from
entering into the microphones. We also haven’t had a single infection caused by Lyric. The material used in the Lyric is a bio-medical substance designed to prevent skin aggravation and also allow the ear canal to breathe and depressurise. You can’t remove the Lyric yourself or adjust the volume? The Lyric can easily be removed yourself and you can adjust the volume or turn the Lyric off and on with the provided remote control. The Lyric is not a digital hearing aid so it is inferior technology? Lyric is an analogue hearing which means it picks up sounds and amplifies in real time without converting it to a digital signal and changing and adjusting the sound of it. The most natural amplification you can get is analogue as unlike digital hearing aids there is no delay between when the sound is detected and then reproduced. Furthermore the inner ear process sound in the same linear fashion as analogue amplification for
GRANT COLLINS Audiologist – Clarity Hearing Solutions
soft to medium loud sounds (which is where all speech sounds are) so the Lyric very accurately replicates normal hearing for these sounds. To test this we did our own in house study where we compared it to the closest alternative products available. We selected five of our patients who had the best traditional deep canal digital hearing aids available from a variety of manufacturers. After trialling for a month all five clients reported the Lyric was the clearest and most natural hearing aid they had ever worn. Four out of the five clients continued on with the subscription, and it was only the geographical location which prevented the fifth client from subscribing.
