GST Deal Under Fire for Cost and Inequity | Adelaide News
Description
A damning new report labels the 2018 GST deal favoring Western Australia as the worst public policy of the century, costing taxpayers $60 billion by 2030 and failing to deliver promised benefits. States are united in calling it a “dog of a deal” that tilts the tax burden unfairly toward WA, with economists demanding equity across Australia. While WA fiercely defends the arrangement, fearing billions in lost revenue, the federal government waits for a final 2026 report—but pressure is mounting for a return to a fairer, more balanced system.
