The 2024 Australian federal budget was delivered on budget night at 7:30pm on Tuesday, 14 May 2024 by Treasurer Jim Chalmers.[2] The budget will dictate how the Australian Government will allocate an estimated A$715 billion across the federal government, and to state and territory governments.[1] It is the third federal budget handed down by the Labor Party since their victory in 2022. The consultation period described the budget as focused on support for Australians and creating a "stronger, more inclusive and more sustainable economy".[3]
