After a wasted decade of division and drift, the Albanese government has adopted a different approach, taking care of the here and now while also keeping an eye on the future.
Whether it’s cheaper childcare, cheaper medicines, more bulk billing or help with energy bills, our primary focus is easing price pressures for Australian families and small businesses.We’re getting the budget in better nick through spending restraint and responsible economic management that would be completely unrecognisable to our predecessors.
We’re building a bigger and better-trained workforce – giving parents the chance to work more if they want to through cheaper early childhood education and care and more parental leave, and equipping more Australians with the skills they need to flourish and prosper with improved access to TAFE and university, with a focus on courses that help people to adapt and adopt technology.
We’re getting capital flowing, and we’re investing in growing areas of national priority like energy and housing – using co-investment, tax incentives, superannuation, and our work with international partners as well as through the federation to drive capital into our economy and towards a better future.We’re designing more efficient markets, including through a competition review that will focus on boosting dynamism and competition, and our efforts to modernise the payments system.
After a wasted decade of division and drift that left us with a trillion dollars of debt, with not enough to show for it, we’ve taken a different approach.
