I would remove HECS charges for ALL people studying for their first degree or qualification .. we need to be a clever country. Sure keep feed for subsequent studies.
I would revise NDIS.. this program is so ridiculous in the supports it gives that don’t ‘pass the pub test!’ I think this program could be halved to save enormous amounts and still keep all reasonable supports. Definitely keep support for legitimate needs but holidays, taking people for a coffee every day etc is way too costly!
I would restrict tax minimising through trusts and try to stop similar tax strategies.
I would see how costly it would be to make basic nursing home care covered by medicare.
I would do all possible to increase public housing availability.
