Received this email in response to my submission:
ECONOMICS LEGISLATION COMMITTEE
Inquiry into the Tax Laws Amendment (Public Benefit Test) Bill 2010
We write to thank you for your recent correspondence to the Senate Economics Legislation Committee's inquiry into the Tax Laws Amendment (Public Benefit Test) Bill 2010 which proposes the introduction of a 'public benefit test' for religious and charitable organisations seeking tax exempt status.
This inquiry examines the operation of the tax laws in Australia. Submissions that are accepted by the Committee attract Parliamentary Privilege. However privilege does not extend to jurisdictions outside of Australia. Given this, your correspondence will not be included in the Committee's inquiry as a formal submission but it will be made available to the Committee members.
Kind regards,
John Hawkins
Secretary
Ah well, I'm glad I submitted it anyway. At least it's being made available to committe members, and I gave them my real name and address if they want anything more. Ya never know.........
