Cost of Living Signals Big Wage Rise Across Australia
The acting Commonwealth Statistician disclosed the quarterly cost of living index showing a nine per cent rise. The report notes higher basic wages across states including Victoria and South Australia with varied weekly increases, while Perth and Western Australia remain largely unaffected by potato and meat price shifts. The price lift is expected to drive up meat, bread and milk costs and fuel inflation pressures on government budgets and unions pushing for restored cost of living adjustments.
