Key measures include:
- Child care subsidy increase
- Added flexibility and an expansion of Paid Parental Leave
- Aged care reforms
- Change to the taxation of off-market share buy-back by listed companies
- The scrapping of the initiative to self-assess the effective life of intangible assets
- Scrapping of the announced but not legislated 3 year audit cycle for SMSFs
- Energy grants for SMEs (but no detail yet)
- Tightening of the thin cap rules and the denial of deductions for intangible assets between related parties in certain circumstances
