This approach reflects the government’s commitment to fairness as well as to our legal obligations.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Government has taken concrete actions to improve the position of women in the economy. 58 per cent of the 3.4 million individuals lifted out of income tax as a result of this Government’s policies are women. The Government is also providing help with childcare costs, including introducing tax-free childcare.
