Treasurer Scott Morrison says tax reform will be included in the May 2016 Budget, although the Australian Government has backed down on its proposal to increase the GST. It will instead look at options such changes to superannuation tax concessions and reducing income tax rates via the abolition of tax deductions for work-related expenses. However, Morrison has ruled out making any changes to the negative gearing regime.
