For everyone Many of the proposed measures announced in last night’s federal budget were largely anticipated: a modest income tax cut for workers earning over $80,000 broad changes to superannuation tax relief for small and medium enterprises. The big winners from the budget stand to be small and medium-sized businesses; middle-income earners; and women returning to paid work. The government’s top priority is to see the proposed company tax cuts and personal income tax cuts start on July 1, 2016, which will put pressure on Parliament to pass legislation quickly. 3
