THE federal government has booked a massive $740 million windfall after seizing control of 730,000 “unclaimed” superannuation accounts.
The Australian Taxation Office took control of $1.2 billion of super funds in the year to June – up from $141m the year before – under budget-boosting laws brought in under Labor late last year.
