Budget 2004

Treasurer's Message

The Bracks Government is providing a sound foundation to ensure Victoria's strong economic performance continues in the challenging times ahead, while significantly improving education, health and community services across the State and delivering a major new package of support for Victorian families.

Over the last five years, Victoria has outperformed the national economy with productivity and business investment growing strongly, while our unemployment rate has been below the national average for almost four years.

Despite continued global uncertainties, the Victorian economy is forecast to grow by 3.25 per cent in 2004-05 and employment growth is expected to remain strong.

The 2004-05 Budget positions Victoria as a diverse and internationally competitive economy to ensure our strong economic performance continues.

John Brumby MP
Treasurer
