Federal Treasurer Scott Morrison will use a speech on 25 August 2016 to highlight the risks to the economy if action is not taken to address the nation’s rising debt and Budget deficit. He will warn about the dangers of allowing complacency regarding Budget repair to set in, and stress that it will be much easier to pursue necessary reforms now rather than waiting until the country goes into recession. Morrison will argue that a balanced Budget, more private investment, and increased free trade and foreign investment are essential to avoid a recession.
