The measures announced in the October Budget 2022-23 will help us deliver better services to you.
They include boosting our service delivery capability such as during emergencies, reviewing myGov and improving our digital systems. We’re also working with our partner agencies to deliver changes to child care, health care, services for older Australians and more.
We’ll continue to improve our service delivery and support you through every stage of your life.
