Another month of inflation in the Reserve Bank's target band, low unemployment, growing real wages and two interest rate cuts in three months are all encouraging signs we are well placed and well prepared to deal with uncertainty in the global economy. #auspol #ausecon

New figures from @ABSStats show that headline and underlying inflation remained in the Reserve Bank’s target band in April. This is the longest period that both headline and underlying inflation have been in the band since the monthly inflation series began in 2018. #auspol.

The two rate cuts in the last three months will save a household with a $500,000 mortgage almost $2,000 a year. This is very welcome relief for millions of Australians. When we came to office three years ago inflation and interest rates were rising and now they’re falling.

Today's jobs numbers show that for the first time since records began the unemployment rate is in the low 4s while both headline and underlying inflation are in the Reserve Bank's target band. This is another welcome sign of the progress we are making together in our economy.

Real wages are up again in today’s new numbers, for the sixth quarter in a row. That means a year and a half of real wages growth, and now the strongest in five years. Our economic plan is all about more Australians working, earning more and keeping more of what you earn. #auspol

New numbers from @ABSStats show that annual real wages have now grown for a year and a half under the Albanese Labor Government. Under Labor, more Australians are working, earning more and keeping more of what they earn. #auspol #ausecon.
