Amended Stage 3 Tax Cuts
The Australian Government has amended the previously confirmed Stage 3 Tax Cuts.

This would have greatly benefited higher income earners saving them thousands in tax. Low to middle income earners would still have benefitted, but with the rising cost of living there were calls to provide more assistance to low to middle income Australians.
