The Victorian Government’s May 2018 Budget has forecast a surplus of $A1.4bn in 2018-19, amid expectations that revenue will rise by almost nine per cent. The Government has attributed the strong Budget outlook to factors such as rising stamp duty and payroll tax revenue, the state’s economic growth and an increase in its share of GST revenue. The Government has also announced that it will invest $A13.7bn in infrastructure projects, including hospitals, schools and roads.
