Proposed law changes put charities at risk
The COVID-19 pandemic has delivered electoral victories to incumbent governments across Australia, most recently in Tasmania. The Morrison government will be hoping that it too will benefit from incumbency when it goes to the polls in the coming 12 months.
The Morrison government will use the federal budget to set an agenda which will focus on those policies which will deliver it victory at the next election and reconnect at a policy level with its traditional supporter base. The reconnection with parts of its base could spell trouble for charities that undertake advocacy activities.
