Jacqui Lambie has criticised the current GST distribution system, arguing the 2018 changes to the goods and services tax unfairly favour Western Australia.
The GST was originally designed to be shared between states under the principle of horizontal fiscal equalisation, meaning every state and territory should receive funding to provide similar levels of services such as health, education and infrastructure.
Senator Lambie argues that changes made in 2018 gave Western Australia a significantly larger share of GST revenue. Since then, she says the state has received billions more than it would have under the previous system, while other states have faced deficits.
She also raised concerns about the “no-worse-off guarantee”, which compensates states that lost out under the new formula. According to estimates, this guarantee could cost the federal budget tens of billions of dollars.
Senator Lambie says Tasmania relies heavily on GST revenue and is calling for the system to be reviewed so that smaller states receive what she describes as their fair share.
