The budget presented by Treasurer Jim Chalmers includes tax cuts for all taxpayers and various new spending measures in areas such as health, education, infrastructure, and aged care. There are no new taxes, but the Australian tax office is expected to strengthen tax compliance. The budget projects a surplus for the current year, but deficits are expected in the following years. The deficit is largely due to factors outside of the government's control, and the deficits are relatively modest and sustainable. The budget also prioritizes spending on health, infrastructure, and education, and there is potential for unexpected surpluses if iron ore prices remain high. [Extracted from the article] |
