    I was absolutely delighted to learn that the ATO has won its battle against offshore giant corporation Chevron; saving Australian taxpayers an estimated $10Billion over the next decade.

    We can thank the likes of the incredibly courageous International Consortium of Investigative Journalists [ICIJ] for this outcome, but Malcolm Turnbull's Government also needs to be congratulated:

    "... The federal government is expected to score a $10 billion windfall over the next decade after multinational oil giant Chevron abandoned an appeal against the Australian Tax Office in the High Court.
    In a settlement believed to be worth more than $1 billion, the US company's case hands Australian authorities a precedent that will shape all future tax arrangements for multinational resources companies.

    To all of those who played a part in this decision, "Well Done folks!!!!!!"
