Other Impacts. Where a foreign employer is exempted from the Superannuation Guarantee this will result in less Superannuation Guarantee contributions being made than would otherwise have been the case. The 15% tax normally levied on those contributions will also not be collected. The impact on Government revenue cannot be quantified but is expected to be small. The reduction in labour costs for these employers may have some impact in promoting investment in Australia although again this cannot be quantified. Groups representing employers and the superannuation industry have been consulted on the proposed agreement and they have not expressed any concerns.
Other Impacts. The EQUAL4EUROPE project explicitly addresses AHMSSBL focused institutions. One of the main objectives is to report on gender issues that are experienced by these institutions and to highlight how these issues are different from typical STEM-universities. Most importantly, what does this mean for the approach and solutions to be implemented? This report will contain valuable lessons for other AHMSSBL institutions throughout Europe. In addition to this report, we will openly publish all our results, so that they are available for other interested organisations. The objective of the EQUAL4EUROPE project is not just to impact the 6 participating RPIs, but to make the impact much wider, thereby making a real contribution to GE and the ERA in Europe. By having EFMD as a partner in this consortium and CEEMAN as a closely associated partner, we aim to structurally embed the results of this project in the accreditation frameworks and standards of EFMD and CEEMAN. 10 xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxx.xxx/bsis • EFMD is owner of the EQUIS label. The EFMD Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) is the leading international system of quality assessment, improvement, and accreditation of higher education institutions in management and business administration. Its scope covers all programs offered by an institution from the first degree up to the PhD, including non-degree programmes. EQUIS has established its prestige worldwide. The impact of EQUIS in raising the standards of management education worldwide is widely recognized. • CEEMAN International Quality Accreditation (IQA) was established in 1998. CEEMAN IQA is the top appraisal among business schools in Central and Eastern Europe. It enhances management education through its unique accreditation process which emphasizes both internationally recognized quality standards and the relevance of an institution’s activities in responding to meeting the development needs of its customers and markets. CEEMAN IQA assesses institutions as a whole. By including specific criteria related to GE in the EFMD EQUIS and CEEMAN IQA labels, automatically a large part of the business schools all throughout Europe (and globally) will be reached. In Europe, there are well over 100 business schools, so imagine the number of people that can be affected by the results of the EQUAL4EUROPE project. The total outreach will be even bigger by using the network of NEHEM which will mean that the project results will be disseminated throughout the EU. The consorti...
Other Impacts. The issues raised in terms of impact of trans-Tasman harmonisation for therapeutic products on regional and global governmental and industry outcomes are more difficult to quantify but appear to offer the exciting potential for ground-breaking work in developing arrangements that could support future joint regulatory endeavours.
