Queensland Budget Drops Debt Boosts Relief

Queensland’s new budget paints a hopeful picture despite global economic headwinds, spotlighting slashed debt, a path to surplus, and major relief for families. The government’s strategy promises billions in interest savings over the next decade, while eliminating two taxes—including one on GP visits—and offering stamp duty breaks for first-home buyers. Big investments are set for infrastructure ahead of the 2032 Olympics, with a focus on transport, health, education, and energy. Productivity gains and federal funding talks are also underway. And perhaps most urgently, the state’s largest-ever ongoing cost-of-living package is on the table, along with thousands of new frontline public service jobs to ease everyday pressures.
