On The Money Podcast Ep.8: A Budget for the Federal Election?

Welcome to the On the Money Podcast, your weekly run down on all things financial. On the show this week: what does a Federal election year mean for the Budget?

In this episode, panel host Tania Katsanis sits down with our special guests to discuss the likely outcome of Treasurer Josh Frydenberg’s Budget Announcement. Dr Peter Davidson, Principal Advisor for the Australian Council for Social Services (ACOSS), and Industry Professor Warren Hogan of the Dean’s Unit at the UTS Business School discuss tax cuts, negative gearing and affordable housing policies, raising the Newstart allowance rate, and reports of under-spending on programs such as the NDIS.

And make sure to tune in to 2SER next week! Our Budget team will emerge from the Lock Up with the facts, figures and best analyses for your Federal Budget programming on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, April 2nd-4th. We will see you then.
