Treasurer Jim Chalmers says the federal government has no plans to tighten tax concessions, although it intends to proceed with its existing tax reform agenda. This includes legislation to double the tax rate on the earnings of superannuation funds whose balance exceeds $3m; the legislation has been stalled in the Senate amid a push by both the Greens and crossbenchers for amendments. Meanwhile, the Treasury’s annual Tax Expenditures and Insights Statement shows that superannuation tax concessions are expected to cost the federal budget about $55.2bn in 2024-25.
