2022 October Budget summary

MEMBERS STATEMENT - HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

It is five months and five days since Labor took government, after nine years of malaise, of wasted opportunity. The contrast is extraordinary. It's been five months and five days of hard work and extraordinary energy from the members on this side, making the most of every day in government to deliver for the country that we all love and want to see prosper. The contrast is really clear.

What we saw last night when the member for Rankin, the Treasurer, delivered this government's first budget was extraordinary. It's responsible. It's sensible. It's right for the times. It's going to help those who need it most, in a beginning move, but it is fiscally responsible and it is measured and it makes sure that everything we're committing to has an economic dividend. I am so proud today to be a member of this government, and I want to congratulate every member here for representing their communities with honesty, with clarity and with commitment and for giving us a compelling message for the Australian people and setting us up for the future. Thank you, everyone.
