Around 66,000 people – every taxpayer in the Bendigo electorate will receive a tax break from July 1 under Labor’s better tax cuts announced by the Prime Minister and Treasurer.
The average tax cut across the Bendigo electorate will be $1,424.

Around 58,000 people, or 88 per cent of taxpayers, will receive a bigger tax cut than they would have under the plan Scott Morrison legislated five years ago.

QUOTES ATTRIBUTABLE TO TREASURER, JIM CHALMERS:

“We’re giving a tax cut to every taxpayer in 2024.

“This is about more help with the cost-of-living and more help for middle Australia.

“This is the right and responsible thing to do - to deliver more relief for more workers without adding to inflationary pressures or burdening the budget.”

QUOTES ATTRIBUTABLE TO FEDERAL MEMBER FOR BENDIGO, LISA CHESTERS MP:

“Every taxpayer in the Bendigo electorate will now get a tax cut.

“We’re delivering more help for working families and more help for locals, putting cash back into people’s pockets when they need it most.

“Our tax cuts are about ensuring more workers in Central Victoria can keep more of what they earn because we know that will take pressure off people doing it tough.”
