The wine industry is set to move into a stronger, long-term position

The wine industry is set to move into a stronger, long-term position after the Federal Budget announcements regarding the Wine Equalisation Tax rebate. Central to the package is the Government’s announcement that it will invest $50 million over the next four years to promote Australian wine overseas and wine tourism within Australia. Tony Pasin, Member for Barker, has welcomed the Coalition Government’s decisions to tighten the eligibility criteria and to return the WET rebate to its original policy intent.
