The Federal Budget Wash Up

So the dust has settled since Federal Treasurer Jim Chalmers handed down the May Budget. Making Money Easy thinks this is the best time for a bit of in-depth analysis of what's in it and its impact. This episode's economists explain what they like about it, where the Treasurer could have gone further and the impact of this economic plan on inflation. Plus - how did we get a surplus? Does it really matter? Is it a one-off? You won't find any winners and losers analysis here - instead the experts highlight danger zones and the role of this budget, in any future reform plans. EY Oceania Chief Economist Cherelle Murphy and Market Economics Managing Director Stephen Koukoulas join Gillian to explain.
