As such, that does lead me to believe the base SG is not required to be included. However, as I am not an expert in state-specific requirements this is definitely something I would double check with the ATO or a WA accounting entity. Additionally, perhaps another user on the forum with experience in WA payroll tax will be able to chime in with specific advice.
