Albanese government

The Albanese government will hand down the final budget of its first term this week. Here’s what to expect from it.

The federal government has announced a $21.4 million package to better support victims and survivors of sexual assault in the justice system.

The coalition has announced plans to mandate public servants to work from the office five days a week. 

The government has announced it will fund a $5 million partnership with the University of Sydney to drive progress on economic equality.

Amanda Rishworth will become the new Minister for the NDIS in a cabinet reshuffle that sees four women promoted to new roles.

Australia is just months away from heading to the polls for the next Federal election. Polling indicates it won’t be a straightforward vote.

Nothing will change, no amount of tinkering will make a difference, until we move to a wholly universal system of early education.

The Albanese government has struck a deal with the Greens on social housing in order to secure support for its guillotine motion in the Senate.

Large Australian employers will be required to meet three gender equality targets or risk missing out on government contracts.

While Coles and Woolworths report record profits, it’s young women and single mothers and their children who are bearing the worst of it.

The $52.2 million Boosting Female Founders grant program will end millions of dollars under budget, after future rounds were quietly axed.

Governments aren’t perfect, much less leaders, but my fear in hanging Albanese out to dry over this incident lies in what the alternative is.
