The Hon Jim Chalmers MP
Treasurer
The Albanese Labor Government is delivering more real, practical and ongoing help with the cost of living for Australians, with more support set to roll out a week from today [1 July].
This is more responsible, meaningful hip pocket help for households.
The Albanese Labor Government is delivering what we said we would at last month’s election, rolling out billions of dollars’ worth of responsible support from 1 July:
After 1 July, our meaningful, responsible cost of living relief will continue rolling out through the remainder of 2025:
Under Labor, inflation is down substantially, real wages are up, unemployment is low, our economy is growing, debt is down and interest rates are falling, but we know people are still under pressure.
All this progress we have made together means we are well placed and well prepared at a time of global economic uncertainty and volatility.
In our second term, the Albanese Labor Government will continue to help Australians with the cost of living, finish the fight against inflation, strengthen Medicare and build a stronger economy.
As at 24 June 2025.
