JCL Series: Looking forward and looking back: why do tax reform? with Prof. Miranda Stewart

The Federal Government recently announced a Productivity Roundtable, indicating that broad tax reform will be part of the discussion to tackle the economic pressures our country faces today, to boost national prosperity, to reduce growing inequality and to improve living standards for future generations.

 

Following the popularity of her keynote speech at the Community Tax Summit in February 2025, Professor Miranda Stewart provided a follow-up address at the July JCL, outlining how Australia's tax system came to be how it is today, the reasons it needs reform and what that reform should look like, in light of the recently announced Productivity Roundtable.
