thanks.

09-10 budget

Revenue side:
Þ Private health insurance rebate will be reduced for higher income earners.

Þ The Medicare Levy Surcharge will also be increased to maintain the incentive for those able to pay for private health insurance to continue to do so.


Expenditure side:
Þ Provide single pensioners on the full rate with an additional $32.49 per week
Þ And all singles and couples will also receive an increase of at least $10.14 per week.
