How does the GST impact you?

1 A stable GST system keeps the nation strong.

The current GST system works because it gives every State and Territory a funding safety net and helps protect Western Australia from going backwards.

2 The GST funds the services you use every day.

GST revenue helps fund the everyday essentials Western Australians rely on, including hospitals, schools. roads, public transport, police, emergency services and major infrastructure.

3 The review is underway. You can make a difference.

A federal review is considering changes to the GST that could take billions from Western Australia at a time of global uncertainty and cost of living pressure.
