CEDA in partnership with the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia, is pleased to invite you to participate in a discussion on tax reform with leading commentators.

Tax reform has consistently been a contentious topic, with successive governments hesitant to address it significantly, and experts involved in the discourse often at odds over the best approach to take.

Dr Ken Henry has “warned that Australia’s social compact with younger workers shouldering a rising tax burden faces an existential crisis”, and Allegra Spender commenting that we are “seeing the emergence of an intergenerational tragedy”.

CEDA and the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia welcome you to join a discussion with leading experts as we delve into the historical backdrop that brought us to our current state, examine ways to participate in political dialogue to advance this issue, and consider the societal agreement needed to effectively address real tax reform.
