Philippines Film Development Chairman Honored With French Knighthood
French President François Hollande has named Briccio Santos, chairman of the Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP), an official member of the French Légion d'Honneur.
French Embassy audiovisual attaché Martin Macalintal told the local Philippine press that Santos is being honored for "his efforts in developing and promoting the Philippine cultural identity through cinema, particularly in the preservation of Philippine film heritage through the creation of the National Film Archives of the Philippines, which is an advocacy greatly supported by France."
STORY: Cannes: Philippines Cinema Comes to the Fore
Santos was appointed FDCP chairman in 2010 by President Benigno S. Aquino and has been credited with reinvigorating the body. Santos' office founded the National Film Archive of the Philippines in 2011, an institution that had been sorely needed by the country for the preservation of its cinematic heritage. In 2012, the FDCP launched the country's first International Film Expo (IFX), which combines an industry market with seminars and panel discussions to help educate and promote the Philippine industry. The first Sineng Pambansa National Film Festival, featuring 10 films funded by the FDCP and directed veteran Philippine filmmakers, followed the second edition of IFX held this September.
Santos told Philippine press the French honor is "a recognition, not only for me, but also for our country, in our continuing struggle to bring culture to the forefront of national consciousness."
The FDCP chairman's honor caps off a strong year for Philippine cinema. At this year's Cannes Film Festival, for the first time three Philippine features screened in the Directors' Fortnight and Un Certain Regard sidebars: Adolfo Alix Jr.'s prisoner of war piece, Death March; Lav Diaz's four-hour meditation on injustice, Norte, The End of History, and crime thriller On the Job, from Erik Matti.
Matti's On the Job was picked up for U.S. distribution before Cannes and Universal Pictures later optioned the film for a remake.
"We have a really hardworking FDCP today," said Matti in recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter. "There used to be a useless group of people running it, whose main agenda was how to bloat the budget of projects so they could earn money from them, or travel abroad at the expense of the government. The new team under Briccio Santos really has their heart in the right place and they seem to understand the plight of the artist in relation to the country."
Santos said the French honor "only strengthens my resolve to continue with the FDCP mission to help in the cultural empowerment of the country."
"With this award, trust is brought back to state institutions such as FDCP," he added.

Season's greetings and last-minute gift ideas
By Hamish Johnston
Things are winding down for the holidays at Physics World and we are all looking forward to recharging our batteries before we get stuck in to all the exciting physics that is sure to come our way in 2015.
If you are like me, you probably haven't finished your Christmas shopping so here are a few suggestions that are sure to get a smile out of the physicists in your life. In the above video, author and scientist Neil Downie recommends a few traditional gifts as well as several quirky presents. I'm not sure that many people have a retort stand on their wish list, but I would certainly welcome a multimeter if I didn't own one already.

Physics World Special Report: India
By Michael Banks
This year has been one of change for India. In May, some 800 million eligible voters went to the polls in an election that was won by the Bhartiya Janata Party. Led by Narendra Modi, the party went on to form a coalition government called the National Democratic Alliance.
Our Special Report, which you can read free online, kicks off by looking at how science is faring under Modi's fledgling administration. Indeed, in September, Modi was personally on hand at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to laud engineers who had just carefully manoeuvred the Mars Orbiter Mission into position around the red planet – a feat that announced India as a major player in space exploration.
Modi's personal interest in ISRO will not only please the organization's chairman K Radhakrishnan, who we interview for the report, but could also be seen as a sign that the new administration is serious about boosting science in the country.

Well, not to be outdone, LEGO fan Jason Allemann has now created a LEGO-inspired particle accelerator. Dubbed the LEGO Brick Collider (LBC), the design has been submitted to LEGO's CUUSOO site, which lets fans share blueprints of their own models.

If someone puts you in an armlock, what should you do? If you happen to be a martial artist well-practised in the art of joint manipulation, or chin na, you will know the answer already: there is one simple move that will allow you to turn the tables on your aggressor, leaving them on the wrong end of a throw. However, if your skill set tends more toward manipulating mathematical symbols, there is still hope, for the answer is also closely tied to theoretical physics.
Physicists create 'anelloni' – a new kind of pasta
By Matin Durrani
Rigatoni, fettucine, tagliatelle, penne? We think they've had their day.
It's time to say hello to "anelloni" – a new kind of pasta created by two physicists from the University of Warwick in the UK. Consisting of giant loops, it's the brainchild of Davide Michieletto and Matthew Turner, who invented the pasta in an attempt to demonstrate the complicated shapes that ring-shaped polymer molecules can adopt.
With its name derived from anello – the Italian word for "ring" – the new pasta is exclusively unveiled in an article that Michieletto and Turner have written in the December 2014 issue of Physics World magazine, which also contains their secret recipe for making it.
Celebrating innovation
By Matin Durrani
"Commercializing physics" is the theme of the November issue of Physics World and it was therefore timely that last night saw a special ceremony at the House of Commons to celebrate the winners of this year's Innovation Awards from the Institute of Physics (IOP), which publishes the magazine.
The awards, which are now in their third year, are given by the Institute to firms in the UK and Ireland "that have built success on the innovative application of physics".
Four firms were honoured this year: Gas Sensing Solutions, which makes carbon-dioxide sensors; Gooch & Housego, for an opto-acoustic device that can modulate laser beams for industrial processing; nuclear-power firm Magnox for a clever way of refuelling a reactor at the Wylfa power station; and MBDA for a novel "missile-system upgrade".
Top physics books for 2014
Is it time for end-of-the-year lists already? At Physics World HQ, the answer is a definite "yes", and we're kicking off the season with our annual list of the year's best physics books.
As in previous years, the entries on our "Book of the Year" shortlist are all well written, novel and scientifically interesting for a physics audience. They represent the best of the 57 books that Physics World reviewed in 2014, being highly commended by external experts (the diverse group of professional physicists and freelance science writers who review books for the magazine) and by members of our own editorial staff, who helped winnow the field down to a shortlist of 10.
This is the sixth year we've picked a "Book of the Year", and I don't think I've ever seen a stronger shortlist. Frankly, 2014 has been a fantastic year for science books, and for physics books in particular. You'll see that quality reflected in the list below, where first-person accounts of the latest discoveries rub shoulders with historical analyses of the foundations of the field. There's room in our shortlist for books about acoustic physics, exoplanets, geophysics, materials science, radiation safety and scientific ethics – plus a whimsical tour of the physics of fantasy and science fiction.

Become a CERN physicist in your bedroom
By James Dacey
Who discovered the Higgs boson? Was it Peter Higgs and a combination of other great minds? The experimentalists at CERN who analysed reams of data? The magnificent machinery of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) itself? By the time that the next great breakthrough in particle physics comes along, the debate about who makes the discovery could become even more complex. That's because a new citizen-science project is encouraging anyone with an Internet connection to search for new curiosities in the Higgs data.
"Higgs Hunters" launched this week and invites the public to sift through collision images from the LHC's ATLAS detector. The task at hand is to look for the paths of charged particles that seem to appear out of thin air in what are known as off-centre vertices. As explained on the Higgs Hunters website, "some scientists think the Higgs could break apart into exotic particles entirely new to science". On the Higgs Hunters website, citizen scientists help to count the number of particle tracks and can notify the science team if they spot anything out of the ordinary.

What makes the perfect song?
By James Dacey
There was a telling moment early on at the event I attended last night when science writer Philip Ball was asked to name his "perfect song". With a slightly bemused look, Ball picked a tune that I'm pretty sure few in the audience had heard of – "The Most Wanted Song", which was co-written by a neuroscientist to incorporate the musical elements that people find most pleasing to the ear. Give the tune a listen and you'll realise that it is a horrible saccharine track that you'll quickly want to turn off. Of course, the point of the song – and Ball's choice – was to ridicule the idea that you can create beautiful music with a formula.
Ball was part of a panel discussion at the Royal Opera House in London on "What makes the perfect song?". He was joined by physicist-turned-opera singer Christine Rice and musicologist Maria Witek, and the event was chaired by the physicist, broadcaster and former pop star Brian Cox. While the panellists were unanimous in their belief that music is a complex emotional thing that cannot be fully explained by physics, they did have some fascinating insights into the science of song.

A visit to an island called Nuuk
By Margaret Harris
The story of Nuuk began in the early 18th century when a French naval officer landed on a barren, ice-covered island and noted its coordinates in his logbook. The island, he reported, was volcanic in nature, but little else was known about it; indeed, later visitors to its supposed location found no sign of land. Rediscovered in the 20th century, Nuuk was soon visited by a series of scientific expeditions, one of which noted that the island's surface area was shrinking. An observation station was set up on a prominent headland, but in 2012, it abruptly ceased transmitting; satellite images later revealed that Nuuk had vanished entirely beneath the ocean surface. Coincidentally, the final signal from Nuuk arrived just as the 34th International Geological Congress was meeting in Australia to discuss the emergence of a new, human-influenced geological age: the Anthropocene.
Nuuk and the various forces that contributed to its demise are the subject of a fascinating exhibition currently on show (until 29 November) at the GV Art gallery in London. Lost in Fathoms is a collaboration between an artist, Anaïs Tondeur, and a physicist, Jean-Marc Chomaz, who specializes in fluid dynamics. To develop her ideas about Nuuk, Tondeur spent a year in residence at Chomaz's Laboratoire d'Hydrodynamique at the Ecole Polytechnique in France, while other parts of the exhibition grew out of a summer school in Cambridge, UK, that focused on fluid dynamics, sustainability and the environment.

Why Cops are Pricks
Anyone ever wonder why cops are such 'pricks'? Every shitty, rotten, horrible, scary situation that exists in life, cops deal with it. Repeatedly. Every friggen' day. Your 'worst day ever' is just another tour. Car accident, homicide, rape, robbery, baby mama drama, baby daddy drama, family dispute over who gets the last pork chop that winds up with a dinner guest sporting a steak knife in the chest, a kid that goes missing or runs away, a Dad who gets tanked up and uses Mom as a speed bag, a drug overdose, hostage situations...every despicable thing that one human being can do to another is what the police are immersed in every day.
Just this week, police in Newburgh, NY were at the scene where a wonderful upstanding citizen was holding others hostage. Earlier this year, this young man's brother charged the police with a knife (it was the last thing he did on this earth...) and the present hostage situation put the lives of 2 people in peril as the perpetrator ranted and raved. The police charged him and subdued him. What does his family do? Why, they charge the police of course! Listen, one family member was a savage who tried to kill the police and just a few months later his little brother is threatening the lives of others while he holds them hostage. Just after minimizing the threat from this psycho, they have to hold off his family who tried to rush the police. Just a little note, when your 'emotionally disturbed' family member is off his/her meds and is a danger to himself or to society and the police have to be called to the scene, try to remember they are the POLICE. If you wanted a social worker or a psychologist, you should have dialed one directly.
This past month, a young NYPD officer gained some notoriety when he bought a pair of boots for what appeared to be a homeless man down on his luck on the streets of Manhattan. It was a selfless gesture and the story went nationwide. It was an opportunity to see the police in a kinder, softer light and quite a human interest story. Of course the media wanted to know all about the recipient of the benevolence - who was he? What was his 'story'? Well, it was learned that Mr. Hillman was not (and is not) homeless. He has a nice apartment in the Bronx, he receives Social Security and Veteran's benefits and has a loving supportive family in Pennsylvania. When asked what he did with the boots, he claimed that he hid them because he didn't want to be robbed and that they were valuable (bullshit - he sold them). Mr. Hillman also claimed that he intends to sue the photographer because he didn't give permission for his picture to be taken and he wants a 'piece of the pie' . So Mr. Hillman is a straight up 'playa', yo. Officer DePrimo said that he was going to keep the receipt in his bulletproof vest as a reminder that no matter how hard a day he was having, he would know that someone else is having a harder time and that he would always be grateful. Officer DePrimo did an honorable thing, but the death of his innocence and naivte has begun and in it's place, cynicism and disdain may have begun its germination.
Stuff like this happens all the time. You call, they come. When they come, it is likely that someone will be leaving in handcuffs. You cannot call the police to a violent situation and expect that in the end, everyone's tears will be dried, hot chocolate and cookies will be handed out to be enjoyed by all and "Kumbaya" will be heard in the background. They are law enforcement officers. They enforce the law. You do not get to determine how they execute their duties. If you could have handled the bag of shit you called them about, you would have. You couldn't, so just shut the hell up and deal with the fact that your husband/wife/brother/sister/baby mama/baby daddy/child/BFF could very well be spending time as a guest of the municipality who came to answer your call for help.
Cops hang out with other cops. They get each other; they don't have to explain themselves. They laugh at things other people think inappropriate. Their humor is dark, but they love to laugh. They work second jobs and they are Boy Scout Leaders, lacrosse, football, soccer, hockey and baseball coaches. The divorce rate in the United States is over 50%, for cops it is significantly higher, and with good reason. They spend twenty –plus years being tired and grumpy from the commute, the crazy hours, the job and pain in the butt bosses. When they walk in the door and the kids yell, "Daddy!" (or, "Mommy!") they 're ready with a big hug, a smile and a "What's up guys?" How, you ask, do I know these things? I have spent twenty seven years being married to one of them. He is one of those big-mouthed tough guys who know everything. He trusts no one. He is a cop's cop. He has an amazing memory and eye for detail that is astounding. Anyone who has ever worked with him will tell you he is probably a little crazy, but that he is the best cop they ever worked with. For twenty years, I watched him walk out the door and I always prayed that he would come back. There were some really close calls, but he always made it home. I have never taken that for granted, I know too well the ache and emptiness in the eyes of the survivors of the shield. For twenty years, I lent my husband to New York City to patrol the streets and to keep the wolves at bay so that the people of that city could live under the blanket of security and safety that his existence provided; all the while knowing that the very citizens he protected resented his presence. In 2010, our son took the oath of office and wears the shield his father wore before him. Again, I wait each night until I hear the key in the door before I fall into a deep sleep.
Cops are pricks. It's what keeps them alive and whole, because if they let all the crap they deal with actually sink in, it would destroy their souls. So they will deal with the things you don't want to believe really happen. They will be physically and emotionally bruised, battered and bloodied. And at the end of each tour when they take off the uniform and close their locker they say a brief prayer of thanks for making it through the day safely. There is one thing that a cop wants every day when he or she goes into work – just one thing. At the end of tour, they want to go home. That's it, just to make it home where things are normal, boring and safe. When all is said and done, that really is their job - to make it through the day and arrive home safe and sound.
Thank God For Good Cops
Cops, Attorney's/DA's, and Judges...
They are my heroes!

Understanding Bladder Cancer -- Diagnosis and Treatment
To diagnose bladder cancer, your doctor completes a thorough medical history and examination. You will then be referred to a urologist, a physician who has special training in managing diseases of the bladder. The first test the urologist may perform is an intravenous pyelogram (IVP), followed by a cystoscopy. During a cystoscopy, the urologist will pass a cystoscope (a fiber-optic lighted tube) through the urethra in order to view the bladder. A urine sample for cytology will be obtained and a...

Need a 4 feet perennial to hide the fence
I need a perennial with a long bloom that stretches from summer to fall that's roughly 4 feet tall for zone 5b. It needs to be big enough to cover up the neighbor' ugly fence.
Joe pye weed or ornamental grasses come to mind first.
Of course, Joe Pye doesn't bloom all summer. But I do think the solution to this problem is a handsome ornamental grass--Miscanthus 'Morning Light' is, IMO, the most beautiful of all the Miscanthus and you also get it all winter long--also very beautiful--which you wouldn't with a perennial. The only time the area would be bare is after you cut it back in early spring. Then it's bare until regrowth, a couple of months.
Persicaria polymorpha would cover the fence, though it's about 6' high. Here, it blooms from the beginning of June into the beginning of August. After the flowers fade, they turn pink and remain attractive for another few weeks. After deadheading, the plant will still persist at about 4' tall. It will give a faster show and fill than an ornamental grass, but if you have room, a nice grass with a persicaria will look attractive the entire summer.
Goatsbeard is another big one, and does have a long bloom time for a perennial. It will take a couple of years, though, to get established. But there aren't any quick fixes in the perennial world, unless, in most cases, you end up with an aggressive plant on your hands. I think the grasses would be your best bet. Mix them up for interest. I esp. love the feather reed grasses.
I was going to say what anitamo said, use a mixture of plants for interest all summer long. Also, less risk of some pest taking interest in your entire "hedge," and much more valuable to area wildlife. You might want to include a few small shrubs. Is this area in sun or shade? Flowers that tall are usually good for cutting for arrangements. If you google something like "IL flowers for cutting" you should get tons of taller plants (and then later, vases full of flowers.)
what ninamarie said. defnitely.and miscanthus strictus next to it for contrast and foliage.
I would consider flowering shrubs to go in that area so that you still have something there on off season to disguise it, plus you don't have to wait each summer for the perennial to get the height you are wanting. There's some Hydrangea and Weigela that come to mind that would be in that general size range.
I suggested Joe Pye weed, but the family gave it a big thumbs down because everyone thought it was ugly. Persicaria polymorpha looks promising. The other possibility was sneeze weed, which is somewhat tall and has nice yellow flowers with a long bloom time.
Agastache Blue Fortune. Tall and blooms all summer. Mine is a few years old and about 3 feet tall this time of year but in a couple weeks will be at least 4 feet.
Clematis will bloom on top of the fence but you may want to plant something by the base so you don't see the fence.
If it's really sunny - perovskia - russian sage. Gets to be 4 feet and really pretty. Blooms all summer too and doesn't take too long to get big.
Roses - many get at least 4 feet and look great even when not in bloom.
Hydrangea if you have the room and it's part shade.
Of course, we're on the perennial forum so I'm not going to suggest other shrubs.

"We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... this land." Just like British actors in American film, poor theropods always end up playing the bad guys. At the beginning of the pilot for Firefly (well, okay, after the beginning beginning), Wash has those plastic dinosaurs, one of which is a Tyrannosaurus or an Allosaurus. Either way, it's a theropod that's about to be vilified. Let's face it. Whenever you have two plastic dinosaurs together, you know it's gonna end with one of them being eaten, so if you've got a carnivore and an herbivore, you know who has the upper ... er... appendage. Especially since the Stegosaurus is all, "Ehn. Ehn. I gots only orthal movements in mah jaw. Ehn." We just hope the Stegosaurus got to use the thagomizer (Gary Larson should get to name all these things) before its untimely end.

According to the Tax Policy Center analysis, Romney's plan to extend the Bush tax cuts for everyone, lower marginal tax rates by 20 percent, eliminate the alternative minimum tax and estate taxes and get rid of taxes on investment income for most taxpayers, while not adding to the deficit, would be a boon for top earners alone. People making $1 million or more would see an average tax cut of $87,000. But people making under $200,000 would see their taxes go up. Those earning between $75,000 and $100,000 per year would see their taxes increase $884.

COMMENTS THIN CAPITALISATION CHANGES- EFFECT ON TRUSTS Jeff McDermid and Sheree Young Chartered Accountants Watter McDermid & Staff INTRODUCTION The objective of the Thin Capitalisation measures is to prevent non-resident investors financing their investments excessively by in-house debts which give rise to interest deductions against Australian income. Returns on investments by way of interest payments on debts are subject to withholding tax of 10%, compared to income tax rates applied to profits, which may be as high as 47%.2 Changes to the Thin Capitalisation provisions were announced by the Treasurer in the 1996/97 Federal Budget. Draft legislation was introduced to Parliament on 26 June 1997. Taxation Laws Amendment Bill (No 4) 1997 passed through Parliament in November 1997 and at the time of writing is awaiting Royal Assent. Based on the top marginal rate of tax. 199 (1998) 8 Revenue LJ Division 16F of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (Cth)3 operates to achieve this objective by restricting the tax deductions available for interest expenses in respect of debt owing to foreign controllers. Interest which is in respect of excessive foreign debt is denied a tax deduction. Excessive foreign debt is measured with reference to the level of foreign equity held by the foreign controller in the foreign-controlled entity. The ratio of foreign debt to foreign equity assists in ensuring that an appropriate amount of profit is derived in Australia, and in protecting Australia's revenue base. Division 16F applies to foreign-controlled Australian resident companies, partnerships and trust estates, and also to direct investment by a "foreign investor", for example, by a non-resident company through a branch in Australia. Broadly, a foreign controller is a non-resident who, either alone or with associates, has a 15% or more interest in an Australian resident company, partnership or trust. Significant changes to the thin capitalisation provisions have been introduced in Taxation Laws Amendment Bill (No 4) 1997. Subject to some transitional provisions,4 the changes have effect from the 1997/98 income year. The structure of many existing foreign-controlled entities will no longer be viable following the change. Planning for foreign investment in Australia will need to be revisited, as the effective, rate of tax of many common commercial structures which utilise trusts will rise significantly. This article analyses the thin capitalisation provisions in relation to trusts, looks at the changes to those provisions, and illustrates their effect on existing structures. FORMER PROVISIONS AS THEY APPLIED TO TRUSTS Section 159GZV contains the operative provisions of Division 16F in relation to trust estates. It applies where foreign debt interest would otherwise be allowable as a deduction in calculating the net income of a trust estate under s 95.5 The provision disallows a proportion of that interest where the greatest total foreign debt at any time during the year of income exceeds the foreign equity, product of the trust estate. Inserted by Act No 138 of 1987, applicable to assessments in respect of income of the year of income commencing on 1 July 1987 and all subsequent years of income. Applicable to taxpayers with substituted accounting periods. Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (Cth) s 95(1) defines the net income of a trust estate. 200 J McDermid and S Young Thin Capitalisation Changes "Foreign debt" in relation to a trust estate is generally calculated as the balance outstanding on any amount (owing by the trustee of the trust estate) on which interest is or may become payable to a foreign controller or non- resident associate of a foreign controller.6 "Foreign equity" refers to the notional equity of the foreign controller in the trust estate based on a notional balance sheet drawn at the end of the year of income.7 The foreign equity was formerly multiplied by a factor of three, thus resulting in the foreign equity product. Other changes introduced by Taxation Laws Amendment Bill (No 4) 19978 have reduced the multiplying factor to two.9 The interest disallowed is calculated as follows: Foreign debt Greatest foreign debt of the trust interest otherwise estate minus foreign equity product allowable Greatest foreign debt The result of these provisions is that interest expense attributable to foreign debt which exceeds the permitted two to one ratio is not tax deductible to the trust estate.I° As noted above, both foreign debt and foreign equity are calculated with reference to the interest of the foreign controller. A non-resident is a foreign controller of a trust if, inter alia:11 (a) the trustee of the trust estate is non-resident; (b) the non-resident has substantial control of the voting power in a trust estate;12 (c) the non-resident, either alone or with associates, has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in at least 15% of the corpus or income of the trust;13 or (d) the trustee of the trust is accustomed or under an obligation or might reasonably be expected to act in accordance with the directions or wishes of the non-resident or associates of the non-resident. 6 Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (Cth) s 159GZF(3). 7 Refer (former) s 159GZG(4) Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (Cth). 8 Above n 1. 9 Effective from the 1997/98 Income Year. l0 Three to one for years of income up to and including 1997/98. 11 Refer s 159GZE(3) Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (Cth). ~2 Ibid at s 159GZJ(3). 13 Ibid at s 159GZH(3). 201 (1998) 8 Revenue LJ In the case of discretionary trusts, this definition cannot always be meaningfully applied. Whether a beneficiary of a discretionary trust had a direct or indirect beneficial interest in a trust was considered by the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) in Case 29/96.14 The AAT held that both vested but defeasible interests and contingent interests were direct beneficial interests for these purposes and, in that case, the "foreign controller" test was therefore satisfied. NEW LEGISLATION Taxation Laws Amendment Bill (No 4) 1997 introduces changes to improve the effectiveness of the thin capitalisation rules.15 The proposals include, inter alia, amendments to the definition of "foreign equity" for fixed trusts, and measures to deny discretionary trusts a gearing ratio to the extent their foreign equity cannot be effectively measured because of the existence of the trustee' s discretion. These measures have wide-reaching implications, not only for discretionary trusts, but also for fixed trusts that have discretionary interests in their income or capital. The new measures achieve their objective by amending the definition of foreign equity in relation to trust estates in s 159GZG(4) and replacing it with a formula which refers to fixed interests in the equity and fixed interests in the income of the trust.16 The new s 159GZG(12) expands this formula in the case of discretionary trusts,a7 A new table in the legislation applies a "maximum discretionary 14 96 ATC 330. 15 Refer Explanatory Memorandum to the Taxation Laws Amendment Bill (No 4) 1997, ch 1, Purpose of the amendments. Where the trust estate has no net income, s 159GZG(4A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (Cth) applies a formula based only on the foreign controllers' interest in the equity. As defined in new s 159GZG(13), ibid, as follows: In subsection (12): "discretionary trust" means a trust where: (a) both of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) a person (who may include the trustee) is empowered (either unconditionally or on the fulfilment of a condition) to exercise any power of appointment or other discretion; (ii) the exercise of the power or discretion, or the failure to exercise the power or discretion, has the effect of determining, to any extent, either or both of the following: (A) the identities of those who may benefit under the trust; (B) how beneficiaries are to benefit, as between themselves, under the trust; or (b) one or more of the beneficiaries under the trust have a contingent or defeasible interest in some or all of the corpus or income of the trust; or 202 J McDermid and S Young Thin Capitalisation Changes percentage" which is determined with reference to the definition of discretionary trusts. The result is that the foreign equity of a trust which is a discretionary trust will be reduced to the extent of the discretionary interests in the trust's income and capital. A fully discretionary trust will thus be denied a deduction for all interest paid to foreign controllers on foreign debt.is It is accepted that the former measures were difficult to apply in the case of discretionary trusts. However, it is difficult to accept that the new provisions introduce a fair and equitable measure of foreign equity for trust estates which have discretionary interests. An alternative approach would be to adopt wording that permits satisfaction of the Commissioner concerning levels of foreign equity, as is the case with s 160ZZS, or to use the same percentage calculated to identify foreign control.19 The definition of discretionary trusts includes other trusts where a discretionary trust may benefit or is capable of benefiting under the first- mentioned trust. This extends to fixed trusts which have interests held by discretionary trusts. Therefore, a unit trust will be deemed to be a discretionary trust where a discretionary trust has an interest in the unit trust. The impact of these measures extends to common structures where interests in unit trusts are held by discretionary trusts. A further detrimental affect of the provisions is that a fixed or unit trust in which a discretionary trust benefits is deemed to have a maximum discretionary percentage of 100%,20 no matter how small the discretionary interest in the fixed or unit trust is. The result is that all interest deductions will be denied. This complete denial of interest deductions is inequitable, particularly where the majority of interests in the fixed or unit trusts are non-discretionary. This approach is also inconsistent with the other provisions in the definition of foreign equity which recognise fixed percentage interests in trusts and allow foreign equity to this extent. It is submitted that the formula should refer to the proportionate interest in the fixed or unit trust which is discretionary, and calculate foreign equity with reference to this proportion. (c) the trustee of another trust, being a trust where both of the conditions in para (a) are satisfied, benefits or is capable (whether by the exercise of a power of appointment or otherwise) of benefiting, under the first-mentioned trust. 18 Deductions are also denied for interest on debt provided by associates of foreign controllers. 19 Refer to the submission by the Taxation Institute of Australia on the Taxation Laws Amendment Bill (No 4) 1997. 20 Refer Case 4, table of calculations of maximum discretionary percentage, s 159GZG(12) Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (Cth). 203 (1998) 8 Revenue LJ Illustration of the Impact of the New Measures An example of a situation addressed by the authors illustrates the inequity of these provisions: A unit trust with majority non-resident interests has maintained debt to equity ratios within the required levels to permit deductions of interest in the calculation of net income,al Foreign debt is provided to the unit trust by the foreign controllers. The units in the unit trust are held by: (1) Australian resident companies (30%); (2) Non-resident individuals (40%); and (3) Discretionary trusts (30%). Pursuant to the new provisions, because a discretionary trust is capable of benefiting under the unit trust, the maximum discretionary percentage applied in the calculation of foreign equity is 100%, and thus foreign equity is reduced to nil. The result is that a debt to equity ratio cannot be satisfied, and all interest on foreign debt is denied a deduction. The impact of the after-tax rate of return and increase in the effective rate of tax is significant (the following assumes 100% foreign ownership): Pre-30/06/97 Post-30/06/97 $ $ Total Foreign Investment in the Unit Trust 10,000,000 10,000,000 Debt component (3:1) (a) 2,500,000 2,500,000 Net Profit before interest 2,000,000 2,000,000 Interest expense (15%) (375,000) (375,000) Taxable Income 1,625,000 2,000,000 Income Tax (36%) ¯ (585,000) (720,000) Interest Withholding Tax (b) (37,500) (37,500) After-tax return to Foreign Investor 1,377,500 1,242,500 Effective Rate of Tax 31.11% 37.88% Rate of Return 13.78% 12.42% (a) Permitted ratio reduced to 2:1 however assuming no debt restructure given impact of the discretionary trust provisions. (b) Assumes a typical loan agreement which provides for grossing up of interest paid to ensure the withholding tax is borne by the borrower. In this case, a transfer of the units from the discretionary trust will attract significant capital gains tax and stamp duty costs. The new legislation has Level of equity is at least one quarter of the level of foreign debt, thus producing the three to one debt to equity ratio applicable to years of income up to and ending on 30 June 1997. 204 J McDermid and S Young Thin Capitalisation Changes posed significant restraints on the existing commercial structure. As illustrated, notwithstanding that the interest expense is not tax deductible, interest withholding taxis still payable. Many loan agreements with foreign control!ers or their associates would also not provide for flexibility with the structure and rate of interest payments. Such interest expense would fall into a black hole, being subject to withholding tax, yet denied a tax deduction. The impact of the changes may mean the trust structure and the financing arrangements are no longer viable. Any restructure ~of the entity to mitigate the effect of the loss of deductibility of interest expense may also fall for consideration under the general anti- avoidance provisions.22 The results are entirely inequitable. The effect on fixed trust structures as noted in the example was not foreshadowed in the announced proposals. Given they apply from 1 July 1997 (four days after introduction of the legislation), entities in this position will miss out on significant interest deductions in the 1998 year.23 ¯ CONCLUSION The changes to the thin capitalisation measureshave now introduced some draconian results. The issues raised in this article in relation.to discretionary trusts, and the effect on many fixed or unit trusts, illustrate that the changes go beyond that required to clarify the position. The new law has not only introduced a sledgehammer approach to the use of discretionary trusts for foreign investment in Australia, it also extends to widely used commerciai entities. Fixed or Unit trusts in which interests are held by discretionary trusts are commonly used to provide flexibility where two or more arms' length parties are involved. Any foreign investment in this structure Can no longer receive a tax-effective return, even within .the permitted debt to equity ratios. Entities which are adversely affected now face the costly exercise of re- structuring, and all in the face of the anti-avoidance provisions. Investors and their advisers that are planning for new. entities which incorporate foreign investment should be aware of the downfall of discretionary trusts in relation to debt funding. 22 Pt IVA Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (Cth). 23 Re-structuring of the finit trust prior to 1 July 1998 may permit the thin capitalisation ratios to be complied with for the 1998/99 year. 205 (1998) 8 Revenue LJ Submissions by the professional bodies in relation to these issues during the process of this legislation were not addressed in the amendments.24 One can only hope that the inequity brought about by these provisions will be addressed in future legislation. 24 Above n 19. 206
