  • <p>Our budget delivers on our plan the Australian people voted for. The budget contains billions of dollars for major investment projects in our cities and our regions, in every state and territory. The Albanese government wants Australian regions to thrive. Importantly, the government is delivering two new regional programs worth $1 billion, working with communities and local councils to invest in infrastructure in a way that is transparent, fair and more sustainable. We are working with local communities to deliver sound and planned infrastructure in regional Australia that creates jobs, builds opportunity and unlocks economic growth and productivity. It's a responsible budget that starts to clean up the mess the Liberals left behind and begins to build the better future the Australian people and people in regional Australia deserve.</p>
