New figures show that there was an 0.4 per cent decline in Australia’s real net national disposable income during the 2013-14 financial year. This followed a 1.6 per cent decline in 2012-13, and it is the first time since the early 1990s that national income has fallen in two successive years. Meanwhile, wages rose by 1.3 per cent in 2013-14, while there was 0.5 per cent growth in GDP during the June 2014 quarter
