Hon Stephen Jones MP – Member for Whitlam, Assistant Treasurer, and Minister for Financial Services – will deliver the Annual Economic and Social Policy Lecture of 2022. Minister Jones’s lecture will focus on Australia’s changing workforce and its impact on productivity and innovation. As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, the way people work has changed: workers are moving out of the cities and into the regions, many are enjoying more flexibility, and the online mode of doing business is becoming indispensable. However, these recent changes have also brought on new challenges, including the loss of intangibles resulting from casual ‘water cooler chats’.

Australia’s history is sprinkled with tax reform attempts – some successful, some not. This seminar explores that history through three phases. First, the establishment of the Constitution at Federation in 1901 and the 1942 unification of income tax. Second, the seminal Asprey review in 1975 that set up the major tax reforms of 1985 and then 2000. Third, the mixed efforts at tax reform, at both the Commonwealth and state levels, this century. This is a hybrid event which will be held both in person and online via Zoom.
