notes that:

micro-brewers in Australia have an excellent product that has provided a niche market and is complementing boutique wines as a regional tourism product; and

these micro-brewers are suffering disadvantage because they are treated differently to the small wine industry in relation to tax; and

(2)

calls in the Government to:

(a)

support a review of the tax system in relation to micro-brewers, with a view to making the tax more equitable and in a similar tax regime as for the boutique wine growers and the Wine Equalisation Tax; and

(b)

continue to support the development of rural and regional areas with innovative new products such as those being developed by micro-brewers.
