2018 Federal Budget Update

On Tuesday 8 May, the Federal Government handed down its Budget for the 2018–19 financial year.

According to the Treasurer, this year’s Budget measures aim to provide tax relief to ordinary Australians, while supporting small-to-medium businesses and improving Australia’s essential services. The Treasurer claims that these measures will help to end Australia’s decade-long deficit and return a modest surplus of $2.2 billion by 2019–20. However, it’s important to remember that these are only proposals at this stage, and each proposal will only become law once it’s passed by Parliament.
