Some 3.7 million households experienced moderate to severe food insecurity in the 12 months to July last year, according to Foodbank Australia&#8217;s latest Hunger Report. At the same time, Australia is binning 7.6 million tonnes of produce each year.<\/p>\n<p>The Western Australian senator&#8217;s bill proposes the establishment of a tax incentive to compensate farmers, wholesalers, and other businesses for the costs associated with donating surplus food to charities. Smith said a food donation tax incentive was &#8220;more needed than ever&#8221;. Smith&#8217;s proposal was inspired by the National Food Donation Incentive, which was originally developed by Foodbank Australia and its partner organisations, with economic modelling done by KPMG.<\/p>\n<p>Foodbank Australia&#8217;s chief operating officer Sarah Pennell said the introduction of similar initiatives had proven &#8220;extremely successful&#8221; in countries like Canada and France. Smith&#8217;s bill proposes a tiered system where smaller food businesses would receive higher tax offsets than larger ones. A company with a turnover of $20 million or less would get a 45 per cent offset, while those with turnovers above $50 million would receive 35 per cent. The offset for businesses with turnovers between $20 million and $50 million would be 40 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sbs.com.au\/news\/article\/businesses-should-be-financially-rewarded-for-donating-food-waste-bill-proposes\/jrlpmozhu\">SBS News<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/5-554\/\">Businesses should be financially rewarded for donating food waste, bill proposes<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[616,575,1589,15139],"class_list":["post-132135","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-australia","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-food-waste","tag-tax-incentive"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132135","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132135"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132135\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132135"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132135"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132135"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
