Peter Dutton at his party launch on Sunday will offer a “cost-of-living tax offset” of up to A$1,200 to more than 10 million taxpayers.
The one-off offset would go to taxpayers earning up to $144,000 when they lodged their tax return for next financial year, making it more than a year off.
The full offset would be available to those earning between $48,000 and $104,000 a year. About 85% of taxpayers would benefit from the offset and about half of all taxpayers would receive the maximum offset.
