McEwen residents are set to benefit from cheaper child care, changes to paid parental leave, and increases to Medicare rebates from July.
In an announcement on Thursday, July 6, McEwen MP Rob Mitchell said that many of Labor’s key election promises are now a reality.
“[This includes] changes to paid parental leave, which gives families greater flexibility when they need it most,” he said.
“I am particularly excited about our cheaper child care initiatives – which see the child care subsidy increase for around 5600 families in McEwen.”
Mr Mitchell said the federal government has also acted on its promise to deliver a National Anti-Corruption Commission.
“Labor promised to establish a National Anti-Corruption Commission, and we have delivered… [with] its doors [opening] on July 1,” he said.
“The [commission] will be critical in restoring integrity and trust in government.”
