财政部长凯蒂·加拉格尔警告称,“预算压力并未减轻”,尽管2025-26财年的预算底线比最初预想的要好。她和财长吉姆·查尔默斯将于周一发布最终预算结果(FBO)。

Finance Minister Katy Gallagher has warned “pressures on the budget are not decreasing”, despite the budget bottom line for 2025-26 being better than first thought, She and Treasurer Jim Chalmers are set to release the final budget outcome (FBO) on Monday. “These new numbers show that the deficit has come in smaller than expected in the May budget and much smaller than we inherited a bit over four years ago,” Mr Chalmers said in a social media video. “It’s remarkable when you consider everything that’s coming at us from around the world that we’ve been able to continue to improve the budget bottom line.” Amid calls for the Albanese government to rein in spending, Senator Gallagher insisted Labor had “been showing spending restraint” as she fronted media ahead of the FBO’s release. “And the fact that the budget and the final budget outcome comes in with half the deficit that we inherited in 2022 and is lower than what we forecast at budget time shows how much work we have been doing, whether it’s been savings, paying down debt – all of that, in the last few years, to make sure that the budget’s in as good a shape as possible,” she told ABC’s News Breakfast. “We’ve been very mindful of the role that we play across the economy, but … the challenges that we’re having now in relation to inflation are not caused by government spending.” Asked if deferring some policies could take some heat out of the economy, Senator Gallagher said it was a balancing act and that the National Disability Insurance scheme overhaul, expected to save almost $38bn over the next four years, had helped improve the FBO. “But the … pressures on the budget are not decreasing,” Senator Gallagher said. “We’ve got aged care, defence, health – all of those areas where we’re seeing more and more pressures coming our way. “We have to manage that, and we’re doing that, but dealing with some of these spending pressures and trying to repair the budget over time is a big effort. “We’ve put a lot of effort in, but there’s more work to do.” More to come

“这些新数字显示,赤字比5月预算时的预期要小,也比我们四年多前接手时小得多,”查尔默斯在社交媒体视频中表示。“考虑到来自世界各地的各种冲击,我们能够持续改善预算底线,这实属不易。”

“事实上,最终预算结果显示的赤字只有2022年我们接手时的一半,且低于我们预算时的预测,这表明我们在过去几年里做了大量工作,无论是节省开支、偿还债务——所有这些都是为了确保预算处于尽可能良好的状态,”她对澳广电视台《新闻早餐》节目说道。
