Indigenous Australians will be hit hard by the 2014‐15 Budget, argues this paper.

Abstract

This analysis looks at the Indigenous provisions in the 2014-15 federal Budget. This is done in the light of current and past strategies, policies, programs and funding, and is supported, where this is possible, by data and information drawn from government agencies, reports and published papers. Similar analyses from previous budgets are available on the University of Sydney e-scholarship website. The opinions expressed are solely those of the author who takes responsibility for them and for any inadvertent errors. This work does not represent the official views of the Menzies Centre for Health Policy.
