The Treasurer confirmed the government is considering fast-tracking personal income tax cuts as the JobKeeper payments relied on by four million Australians are scaled back. With the nation in its worst economic crisis in close to a century, Treasurer Josh Frydenberg is hinting more help is on the way. But the Opposition is still attacking the government for cutting back on support while unemployment rises.
