工党表示,随着澳大利亚对维州部分地区实行最严格的冠状病毒的限制,联邦政府应重新考虑降低JobKeeper的费用。
关键点:
JobKeeper将在未来八周内减少到每两周1,200澳币
工党称维州目前的局势值得重新审视
总理Scott Morrison承认,自10天前的最新更新看来,经济前景有所恶化。
不到两周前,政府宣布了这项860亿澳币的未来计划,到9月底每两周将减少300澳币的付款,并将于明年初开始进一步减少。
但自宣布以来,澳大利亚的记录显示了一些最严重的新冠病毒数据,随着维多利亚州感染率持续增长,使得人们讨论采取更严格的封锁措施。
影子财政部长Jim Chalmers告诉ABC广播公司的内部人士,政府应该“重新考虑‘之前的公报。
他说:“在某个节点,费率应成锥形的模式发展,但是很明显,自预算更新以来,最近几周的经济发展值得对此重新考虑。”
“谈到JobKeeper时,我们总是说JobKeeper应根据经济状况进行量身定制。
“很显然,JobKeeper不会一直存在,但也不能太快速的取消。”
总理Scott Morrison周四承认了7月份公布的最新经济数据表明,本财年出现了1840亿澳元的赤字,维州的爆发被乐观的渲染了。
他说:“经济上的数字很快被疫情对国家造成的损失给掩盖了。”
“维州的这波爆发肯定会造成这种影响。”
Chalmers先生今天一直在致电政府呼吁维持目前的每两周1,500澳元的JobKeeper费率,但也表示重新考虑该费率是需要的。
他说:“首先,让我们看看政府对JobKeeper的决定是如何做出回应的,这些决定是基于一些相当乐观的假设,即维多利亚州的限制实际上会放松而不是变得更加严格。”
他说:“我们将有机会在下周与财政部官员交谈,以了解撤回支持将产生什么影响。
“一旦了解了政府下一步计划,我们就会知道如何应对。”

With the tightest coronavirus restrictions in Australia looming for parts of Victoria, the Federal Government should reconsider a reduction in the rate of the JobKeeper payment, Labor says.
Key points:
JobKeeper is set to be reduced to $1,200 per fortnight in eight weeks
Labor says the situation in Victoria warrants a fresh look at the change
Prime Minister Scott Morrison has conceded economic forecasts have worsened since the latest update 10 days ago
Less than two weeks ago the Government unveiled the future of the $86 billion scheme, with payments to reduce by $300 per fortnight at the end of September, with a further reduction pencilled in at the beginning of next year.
But since the announcement, Australia has recorded some of its worst coronavirus figures, with persistently high infection numbers in Victoria prompting talk of more stringent lockdown measures.
Shadow Treasurer Jim Chalmers told the ABC's Insiders program the Government should "take another look" at its announcement.
"The rate should be tapered at some point, but clearly the developments in the economy in the last couple of weeks since the budget was updated warrants a reconsideration of that," he said.
"When it comes to JobKeeper, we've always said that JobKeeper should be tailored to the economic conditions.
"Clearly JobKeeper won't be provided forever but nor should it be withdrawn too quickly."
On Thursday, Prime Minister Scott Morrison conceded the economic figures released in the July economic update, which pointed to a $184 billion deficit this financial year, had been rendered optimistic by the Victorian outbreak.
"These economic numbers quickly outdate based on the way that the pandemic impacts on the country," he said.
"The Victorian wave is certainly having that impact."
Mr Chalmers today stopped short of calling on the Government to maintain the current JobKeeper rate of $1,500 per fortnight, but said a reconsideration of the rate was worthwhile.
"In the first instance, let's see how the Government responds to the fact the decisions they took on JobKeeper were based on some pretty rosy assumptions about restrictions in Victoria actually easing rather than becoming more restrictive," he said.
"We'll have the opportunity to speak with Treasury officials during the course of this coming week to see what the implications of that withdrawal of support will be.
"We'll come up with a position once we know what the Government intends to do."
