From David Uren:
Australia’s debt could blow out by more than $100 billion if the budget is wrong in its prediction that the economy will return to pre-crisis growth and the Turnbull government is unable to win Senate support for all of its outstanding savings measures.
An analysis prepared by Deloitte Access Economics shows the vulnerability of the debt outlook to both the government’s failure to get budget savings passed through the parliament and to the reliability of Treasury’s economic forecasts.
