MEDIA RELEASE
COST OF LIVING RELIEF MEASURES BEGINNING 1 JULY
The Albanese Labor Government is providing vital cost of living relief for everyone in Greenway from 1 July.
The Government is helping Australians right now, while working to tackle inflation and deliver a Future Made in Australia.
From 1 July, the Government is delivering:
- A tax cut for every Australian taxpayer – including 93,000 in Greenway;
- $300 energy bill relief for every Australian household, and $325 for small businesses;
- A freeze on the cost of PBS medicines for every Australian;
- More funding to build more homes in every part of the country.
This comes on top of a third consecutive pay rise for 2.6 million workers, backed by this Government.
It builds on cost of living measures the Government has already delivered, such as cheaper childcare, fee-free TAFE and the biggest investment ever in expanding bulk-billing.
Quotes attributable to Minister Rowland:
‘I know that people in North West Sydney are under pressure right now.
‘That’s why the Albanese Labor Government is delivering this help now, while delivering on our responsible economic plan to fight inflation and invest in future growth.
‘I know there’s still more to do, and I’ll keep working every day to deliver for the people of Greenway.’
