It gives me an opportunity to talk about the way in which families have been assisted by the government’s family tax benefits improvements over the last 10 years. The family tax benefit part B was introduced by this government. There was no family tax benefit part B before this government introduced it. That benefit goes to families who have only one income earner. In addition to that, the government increased from $2,420 to $4,460 the maximum family tax benefit part A per child.
