More will be happy with budget: Frydenberg

Assistant Treasurer Josh Frydenberg concedes there will always be people unhappy with a budget but he expects this year's will be more warmly received.

Assistant Treasurer Josh Frydenberg anticipates the May 12 budget will be more warmly received than the Abbott government's first effort last year.

Mr Frydenberg, who attended a budget meeting on Wednesday, said inevitably there will be people who are disappointed, whoever brings down a budget.

"(But) certainly this year's budget will be more warmly received in some quarters than last year's budget," he told ABC radio.
