    The Federal Budget has just dropped for 2025 and in this episode of the ICB News Channel Podcast, Rob and Matthew discuss firstly, should Bookkeepers and Small Business Owners try and stay engaged with a Federal Budget each year and secondly, if the answer to that is yes, to what degree should you be engaged and what (if any) is in this years budget, that has major impacts on Bookkeepers and Small Businesses. Another side impact of this years Budget and a looming Federal election coming up in Australia, is the scenario of Pay Day Super. Could anything change if there is a new Government, what is the current update on how things are currently tracking with Pay Day Super, and finally if things do continue to keep tracking towards a 1 July 2026 commencement, are their any flaws that need sorting out and is it indeed possible for the new requirements to start happening from that date. Other current scenarios bubbling for Bookkeepers and Business owners that are discussed in this episode of the Podcast, include Quarterly to Monthly changes for GST reporting for some businesses here in Australia at the moment, whats happening for Members and at ICB for End of Financial Year this year, plus more ... makes this another must listen for this episode.
