Summary

Labor’s big tax win in the Senate, secured with Greens support, moves negative gearing and capital gains tax changes forward — a victory framed as helping working Australians and leveling the playing field. But the deal came at a cost: an extended inquiry into the NDIS, giving critics more time to challenge proposed cuts. The disability community has raised alarms over potential loss of vital support, while the government stands by its reforms. The Greens, pushing to scrap the NDIS bill, won key amendments limiting ministerial power and boosting oversight of automated decisions — setting the stage for a prolonged battle as the August vote looms.
