Tax reform needs to happen

Reforming our tax system could help us address some of our biggest challenges, like housing affordability, sluggish productivity and the climate transition.

But most people in Canberra believe talking tax is dangerous – instead only talking about the easy stuff, the band-aids, and the short-term fixes.

I've been working on an independent strategy for tax reform. I have released a Tax Green Paper that represents the culmination of this work.

It doesn’t tell us what we should or shouldn’t do, instead it seeks to outline challenges as well as the current evidence base to provoke discussion about the solutions. The paper identifies a possible process for significant tax reform in the next parliament. I invite your feedback on this work.

  • Support small business and the arts to recover from COVID and thrive in the new economy
  • Focus the government on cost of living pressures across the Australian community
