2024 Update
The Commonwealth Grants Commission’s recommendations for the distribution of Goods and Services Tax revenue to the states and territories in 2024-25 will be released on the morning of Tuesday 12 March 2024.
At the same time, the Commission will also release an ‘Occasional Paper’ providing a summary of the key issues affecting the distribution of GST revenue in 2024‑25, as well as information on what has driven changes in the distribution of GST revenue to individual states and territories.
The Commonwealth Grants Commission provides independent advice to the Australian Government on the distribution of the GST to the states and territories. Australia’s GST distribution arrangements are governed by relevant legislation and seek to provide the states and territories with a similar fiscal capacity to provide services. The Commission’s recommendations for the distribution of GST revenue consider the different revenue raising capacities of the states and territories and differences in the costs they face in providing services.
The Chair of the Commission, Mr. Mike Callaghan AM PSM, will be available to provide background on the GST distribution recommendations.
