Overview

The PBO has prepared detailed projections of receipts and payments over the period beyond the forward estimates to 2027-28 to explain the main drivers of the projected return to surplus, fall in net debt, and increase in net financial worth over this period.

As required by its legislation, the PBO's 2017-18 Budget medium-term projections are based on the economic forecasts and other parameters underpinning the 2017-18 Budget. The PBO's projections assume that the Government's policy settings remain unchanged from those current as at the 2017-18 Budget.
