It's the masses going onto the dole que now that needed to be budgeted for. And job creation.

But pensioners having some extra cash will get some money back into the system.
The pension for a couple is about $630 each a fortnight.

They will get a one off payment of $750 each

The dole has just been doubled for a single person to about $1100 fortnight
