The April 2019 Budget includes some $302m worth of tax relief over the next decade, including the $144m tax package announced in 2018. Individuals will benefit from an immediate increase in the low- to middle-income tax offset, with the tax cut to be available when they lodge tax returns for 2018-19. The 32.5 per cent income tax bracket will be reduced to 30 per cent from 1 July 2024, and an estimated 70 per cent of taxpayers will be in this bracket. Just six per cent will pay the highest marginal tax rate of 45 per cent from mid-2024.
