Correction to article
In TIB Vol 13, No 10 (October 2001), there was an item with exchange rates acceptable to Inland Revenue for converting foreign currency amounts to New Zealand currency under the CFC and FIF rules for the 6 months ending 30 September 2001.

The 12-month rate for 17 September should read 0.2900
Australia
The mid-month rate for 15 August should be 0.8234.
