Treasurer Scott Morrison has revealed that the Federal Government’s three-stage personal income tax package will cost $A143.95bn in total, with the first two stages to cost $A102.35bn. The tax bill was passed by the House of Representatives on 23 May, although it is likely to face resistance in the Senate. Labor and crossbench senators have urged the Government to legislate the first stage of the tax cuts separately. Meanwhile, Finance Minister Mathias Cormann says the company tax cuts package will be part of the Coalition’s policy agenda for the next election.
