Sky News will provide live unrivalled coverage and analysis as the Albanese Labor Government hands down its first Federal Budget tomorrow, five months after forming government.
The government is facing major economic challenges – rising interest rates and inflation, rising cost of living and budget blowouts in health, aged care, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), as well as the increasing interest bill on the country’s record debt.
