5 Refining the Community Development and Support Expenditure Scheme For this reason, IPART considers that individual club measurement, recording and reporting of contributions, beyond that required and conducted through the CDSE Scheme, should remain non-mandatory. Nevertheless, clubs that actively record and measure their activities and contributions gain useful commercial information and receive benefits through a better understanding of their core business. Recognising these benefits, the ‘For Community Support’ section of ClubsNSW’s Best Practice Guidelines recommends clubs annually assess their community support activities. It recommends these activities be reported separately or in the annual report to club members. 85 IPART considers that recording and reporting of individual club social contributions to members and, where possible, to ClubsNSW, should be encouraged. The benefits of measuring, recording and reporting on club activities and contributions should be communicated to industry through a more detailed discussion within ClubsNSW’s Best Practice Guidelines. 86 Recommendation 11 That ClubsNSW encourage clubs to measure, record and report on their social contributions to their members and to ClubsNSW, by developing a Best Practice Guideline on reporting social contributions. 5.6 The maximum CDSE rebate should not be increased IPART asked roundtable participants and case study clubs whether they saw benefit in extending the maximum CDSE rebate beyond the current 1.5 per cent of prescribed profits. Some stakeholders saw benefits in CDSE Scheme expansion. NCOSS, for example, supported an extension of the rebate. 87 The Leagues Clubs’ Association, both at roundtables and in submissions, 88 proposed including donations to professional rugby league clubs in CDSE and providing a 50 cents in the dollar rebate for CDSE contributions over 1.5 per cent of prescribed profit up to 5 per cent of profit. On the other hand, many individual clubs were wary about extending the Scheme However, this view seemed to be based on a misunderstanding that CDSE is compulsory, and that extending it would create a larger cost burden for clubs, when in fact it operates as a revenue-neutral tax offset for clubs. 85 ClubsNSW, Best Practice Guidelines, July 2005, p 37. 86 Feedback from the case study process identified that most clubs looked to ClubsNSW Best Practice Guidelines for guidance and found them to be very useful. 87 NCOSS, Sydney roundtable, 27 August 2007, p 11. 88 Leagues Clubs’ Association, Sydney roundtable, 27 August 2007, p 17; Leagues Clubs’ Association submission, 8 April 2008, p 6. 84 IPART Review of the Registered Clubs Industry in NSW
5 Refining the Community Development and Support Expenditure Scheme IPART considered the merits of extending the rebate, but concluded that it would not achieve its desired objective of increasing club community contributions, as clubs already contribute close to twice their CDSE liability. If the cap were increased under present circumstances, it would most likely result in government subsidy of contributions already occurring, rather than an increase in clubs’ community contributions. IPART therefore considers that the maximum CDSE rebate should remain unchanged as 1.5 per cent of prescribed profits. Review of the Registered Clubs Industry in NSW IPART 85
