Upon Federation in 1901 drafts were sent all Australian Private Banks. In 1910 a bill was passed in Federal Parliament known as The Australian Notes Bill, accented to in October 1910. This bill placed a 10% tax on all Private Banks of Issue, effectively forcing all private banks to withdraw their own banknotes.
