If a Commonwealth body owns premises with parking spaces, does the Levy apply?
No. Under the Constitution, a State is unable to impose a tax on property owned by the Commonwealth (a Commonwealth place). However, although a Commonwealth body cannot be required to pay Levy as an owner, other owners may treat a Commonwealth body in the same manner as any other tenant or licensee when seeking to pass on the cost of the Levy.
