Childcare bill blows another hole in Labor’s budget
Sky News host Jaimee Rogers claims Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s $3.6 billion childcare wage deal is the latest costly commitment putting pressure on the nation’s finances. “The road to a budget blowout is often paved with good intentions. The NDIS is proof of that. Now there are warnings the childcare sector could be heading down exactly the same path,” Ms Roers said. “The Albanese Government committed $3.6 billion to a childcare wage increase. Subsidising 60,000 childcare workers for another 18 months. “This increase wasn't in the budget. And this isn’t the only hole in the budget from this week. “To put the childcare costs in perspective, the government is selling defence assets for about $1.8 billion, which looks like a weekend garage sale next to this 18-month childcare pay rise. “The sale of 67 defence sites will pay for half the cost of this childcare deal.”
