On Thursday the 8th of October, the State Government released its 2020/21 Budget outlining confirmed spending over the last 12 months, and its plan for investment and savings over the next few financial years, including the key initiatives that may have a significant effect on the future health and wellbeing of young people in Western Australia.
Here is our verdict on whether the State Government through the 2020-21 Budget
has capitalised on the opportunity COVID-19 has presented to create a better future
for young people in Western Australia. We have also reiterated our recommendations
from our Framework for Young People’s Recovery from COVID-19 in Western
Australia as well as our 2020-21 State Budget Positioning Paper, as they align to each
area of focus.
