2006-07 Pre-Budget Submissions

I am inviting submissions from individuals, business and community groups on their views regarding priorities for the 2006-07 Budget.

The Government places considerable importance on receiving community views in developing its budget strategies and policies.
It would be advisable for those interested in making a submission to do so as soon as possible, to ensure its consideration in the budget context.

The deadline for submissions is Friday 11 November. Where the submission is more than 10 pages in length, it would be helpful if a short executive summary, of no more than two pages, could be included.

Submissions longer than 5 pages should be accompanied by an electronic version, either on disk or CD, or emailed in Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat format.

Submissions should be forwarded to the address below:

Address for Submission:
Budget Policy Division
Department of the Treasury
Langton Crescent
PARKES ACT 2600
Contact officer: David Crawford
Telephone: (02) 6263 3725
