flag Australian government faces $7.4 billion shortfall due to overlooked public servant wage increases.

flag The Australian government faces a $7.4 billion budget shortfall due to an oversight in accounting for public servant wage increases. flag Despite agreeing to a 11.2% pay rise over three years for 185,000 federal workers, the budget projections failed to include these costs, assuming wage growth would cease by mid-2025. flag This discrepancy has sparked criticism from opposition leaders, questioning the government's economic management. flag The treasury defends the budget as based on current estimates.
