The Australian Government will not make changes to the "Simply Super" regime as it concerns the taxation of superannuation benefits. Nick Sherry, the Minister for Superannuation & Corporate Law, said the Government supported the regime when it was introduced by the previous government and committed to its retention during the election campaign. Sherry was responding to claims on the "Sunday" program on 30 March 2008 that the Government was considering taking away the income tax exemption on pension assets.
