2008-09 Federal Budget Overview

Supplied by NSW Business Chamber

Many local businesses don't have time to wade through the huge volumes of text in the Federal Budget.  A concise option has been produced for any business owner who wants to know what the major announcements and cuts have been in the Budget at a quick glance.

Please download the attached pdf to view a copy of the overview (those with slower download times can choose the low resolution option).

"The economy has experienced 17 years of consecutive growth in which small and medium businesses have played a critical role in economic growth and job creation.  However, there are dark clouds appearing on the horizon and it's critical that the business community has a firm knowledge of what the Government is doing to keep the economic ship steady.

The Budget has delivered a $21 billion surplus, reined in expenditure growth, introduced new endowments for infrastructure, health and education and takes a swing at breaking the back of inflation."
