The ATO contracted with a Vietnamese venue provider to host the Foundation Tax Crime Investigations Workshop in Hanoi on 9-13 September 2024 as part of the Mekong-Australia Partnership on Transnational Crime initiative. The contract, funded through Official Development Assistance, covered venue hire at the Pan Pacific Hanoi Hotel for 40-45 participants, including meeting room facilities with audiovisual equipment, daily catering (lunches, refreshments, and one formal dinner), interpretation services, and associated incidentals. The agreement established the venue contractor as an independent contractor rather than an ATO employee, with the contract term extending to 30 October 2024. The disclosure demonstrates the ATO's involvement in international cooperation on tax crime investigations with Mekong region partners.
