Grateful the @acccgovau chair Gina Cass-Gottlieb could join me this morning as we introduced the biggest changes to merger screenings in half a century. The ACCC has been calling for merger reform for some time to help make our economy more competitive, so consumers have

We're overhauling how business mergers are screened in Australia. Our changes will allow the ACCC to look into all high-risk mergers and we're making sure this includes every merger in the supermarket sector. This important economic reform is part of our ambitious agenda to

We’re reforming Australia’s merger system to boost competition and productivity in our economy. The @AlboMP @AustralianLabor Government is making the system faster, stronger, simpler, more targeted and more transparent. My thoughts on the biggest reforms to merger laws in 50

We've had welcome and promising news in the fight against inflation. Our policies are making a difference, but people are still doing it tough which is why we’re helping with the cost of living. It's a stark contrast to the Liberals, who after two and a half years still don't

Early press conference this morning on our decisive action to help consumers get fairer prices at the supermarket checkout. Helping with the cost of living is our number one priority and we're doing what we can to ease pressure on Australians.

Responsible economic management has been a hallmark of the Albanese Government since day one, and the proof is in the two straight surpluses we’ve now delivered, while providing cost of living relief. My thoughts on the latest Budget numbers in today’s @FinancialReview @SenKatyG

We've delivered a second consecutive budget surplus. But our surpluses aren't an end in themselves, they help fight inflation, pay down Liberal debt, and made room for cost-of-living relief for people under pressure.

The Albanese Labor Government has delivered the first back-to-back surpluses in nearly 2 decades. Our surpluses help fight inflation, pay down Liberal debt, and made room for cost-of-living relief for people under pressure.
