Summary

Edit

The majority voted against amendments (8) to (11) moved by Labor MP Chris Bowen, which means they failed.

These amendments were related to the Labor Party's policy for "bigger and better personal income tax cuts" from 1 July 2019.

What does this bill do?

The bill was introduced to:

  • introduce a low and middle income tax offset to reduce the tax payable by low and middle income earners that are Australian residents in the 2018-19, 2019-20, 2020-21 and 2021-22 financial years;
  • merge the low and middle income offset and the current low income tax offset into a new low income tax offset from the 2022-23 financial year; and
  • progressively increase the income tax rate thresholds in the 2018-19, 2022-23 and 2024-25 financial years.
