Back to EpisodesNationals Propose Triple Parental Leave, Boost Family Support
Description
The Nationals in Australia propose significant changes to support families, including tripling paid parental leave to eighteen months, income splitting options, and reducing HECS debt for mothers. They also suggest cutting income tax for moms with young children, promoting affordable family cars, and easing housing pressures. These proposals aim to boost population growth and appeal to women and young voters, with experts praising longer parental leave for its benefits. The Coalition is also developing its own family policies, and the Nationals plan to test these ideas with regional communities.
