520			_aGovernment is planning to close a loophole in the current stamp duty system in which specially created corporate tax vehicles can be used to avoid the 3.5% levy. A vendor can set the vehicle to hold the property for sale, and then sell shares in the company, subject to only 0.5% tax. It may not be possible however to regulate for such vehicles which are registered overseas.
