Which winners and losers girl are you
And while there are plans being considered in Victoria and NSW to bring international students back to Australia outside of hotel quarantine, the budget only goes as far to say that "small phased programs" for international students will start late this year. The federal government is going to work with the states and territories to fund aftercare for every person discharged from hospital after a suicide attempt.
The new money is in response to the findings from a report by the Productivity Commission into Mental Health and comes in the wake of increased pressure on mental health support providers throughout the pandemic. It was replaced, instead, with more funding for projects that line up with the government's "gas-led recovery" and "low emissions technologies". Treasurer Josh Frydenberg has not committed to net zero emissions by , but says it's the government's preference.
There aren't a lot of cuts in this budget, but one way the government is expecting to save a lot of money is by making "newly arrived residents" wait four years across the board for "most" welfare payments. There's no more detail in any of the budget papers about who counts as a new resident and what payments they will be blocked from receiving, but the change is something the Australian Council of Social Service has already flagged as "very concerning".
As well as the support announced for particular industries like small brewers, video gaming and medical and biotech start-ups, the budget also has a few perks for other businesses. Last year's business write-off perks are being extended by another 12 months. The extension also mean any losses incurred up to June can be offset against prior profits made going back to the financial year. Farmers will benefit from the instant asset write-off which has been extended until June , allowing them to immediately deduct the full cost of eligible depreciable assets.
But those looking for an answer to the shortage of farm workers or a new international trade strategy to deal with the fallout from Australia's deteriorating relationship with China may be disappointed. One of the new ideas in the budget is a new tax program aimed at encouraging medical and biotech companies to stay in Australia while they develop and then sell their ideas.
In a nutshell the "patent box tax regime" will tax any income from a company's patent at a concessional rate of 17 per cent starting from July 1, For comparison, large businesses are taxed at 30 per cent and small-to-medium enterprises at 25 per cent. Part of that includes removing red tape and changing tax rules to encourage the use of employee share schemes, which the government says are important for start-ups to attract and retain staff.
The government is keeping its reduced cap of refugee places at 13, a year after lowering it by 5, in last year's budget. But it is extending funding for support services that help women on temporary visas who may be experiencing domestic and family violence. Development: Colin Gourlay and Andrew Kesper.

Lo finally rolled up in stagecoach chic and the yeehaw agenda lived to ride into another sunset. Special shout-out as well to Kim Petras, who decided to go full horse girl:. Kim Petras at the MetGala pic. As long-suffering livestream hosts Keke Palmer and Ilana Glazer wrapped up and signed off the Vogue red carpet at approximately p. Eastern, Twitter experienced a collective wave of panic.
Where was Rihanna? Was she not coming? Why had we all thought she was? Was she unvaccinated? What was the point of a Met Gala without Rihanna? What was the point of living? Rihanna was coming, she was just incredibly late. All was well! Then she arrived on the red carpet, and we took yet another blow. Surely she had something incredible on underneath what appeared to be a giant black duvet and beanie.
This is all I can give her. Thanks for showing up at all, queen.
