  • Increase in Medicare low income threshold - $21,980 to $22,398 for singles and from $37,089 to $37,794 for families;
  • Expansion on the instant asset write-off (to $30,000) to include medium sized businesses;
  • Deferred start date for the modified operation of Division 7A – 1 July 2020;
  • $42.1 million over 4 years for on-time payment of Superannuation for larger businesses and high net worth individuals;
  • $61 million over 3 years for to support Australian businesses to export Australian goods and services;
  • $9.2 million over 4 years to address sham contracting behaviour;
  • Expansion of Single Touch Payroll;
  • Increased flexibility for 65 and 66 year olds to top up their super;
  • $606.7 million over 5 years to facilitate the Government’s response to the Royal Commission;
