The IGR is a social compact
between the generations
Children, grandchildren, parents,
grandparents and each other
The IGR is required to be produced by the Government
every 5 years under the Charter of Budget Honesty Act.
It presents 40 year projections of the changing shape of
Australia’s population and economy, and the Budget impacts
of Commonwealth government policy settings.

Life expectancy will reach 88 yrs for men and

It’s even higher if you take into account expected
improvement in health and new technologies
(95 yrs men and 97 yrs for women).

Building a stronger Australia
We need to be able to afford our future.
The IGR shows we have made considerable
progress in putting the budget back on
track.
But more needs to be done.

How can we pay for our future?
1. Participation
• Grey Army
• Female workforce participation
2. Productivity (increasing output per hour)
• Investment in new capital and infrastructure
• Innovation and technology
• Entrepreneurship and competition
• Skills and education
35
How can Government help?
Enable consumers.
Facilitating change rather than controlling
change.
Living within our means.

Next - the conversation
We must continue to make the changes that
unlock the vast potential of Australia’s future.
This is a conversation the nation wants to have.
