Australian Pension increase


Recommended Posts

Posted

I read the other day that the 6 monthly rise in pensions wont be happening next month.

It appears the cost of living index has not increased so no pay rise.

We have to wait till March next year for the next one.

I wonder if the politicians will be granting themselves a pay rise or not.

Yep, cost of Covid support is the claimed reason, but is it was only about $3 - $5 p.w. Don't know about all States and Territories, but some have put on hold politician pay rises after pushback. e.g.
