Federal Budget 2023–24: Tax bills status

5 May, 2023

The last sitting of Parliament ended on 30 March 2023. It will reconvene next Tuesday 9 May when the Government’s Budget is introduced into the Parliament as a collection of appropriation bills and the Treasurer makes a speech to the House of Representatives at 7.30 pm to introduce the bills.

Both houses of Parliament will sit from Tuesday 9 to Thursday 11 May 2023. Parliament will debate and consider the appropriation bills in the same way as other proposed legislation.

The Government has already announced some tax and superannuation measures which will be included in the Budget — on Monday we will be releasing a Banter Blog article setting out a round-up of the tax and superannuation announcements on the eve of the Budget.

Before Budget night comes around with a swathe of expected and unexpected new measures, now is a good time to take stock of the measures which were announced by the current or previous government.
