ACT Budget Workshop

After our successful Budget Workshop on 11 September, we are running this workshop again to help you understand and participate in the ACT Budget process. 

This workshop will provide an overview of the ACT budget that supports our members to be able to navigate key documents and write submissions. The workshop includes a discussion of the politics and actors involved in public sector budgets to help understand how the budget is created and why it is structured as it is. The workshop will also offer some practical advice around how to read budget documents, practical notes for writing submissions and the timeline for developing the budget.

Comments from particpants in the previous workshop:

"Really good introduction to budget writing especially for those new to policy like myself. Very comprehensive."

"Really clearly presented, providing a really valuable overview based on insights from Treasury - extremely helpful in terms of trying to be as effective as possible with our organisation's advocacy ahead of the 2026-27 ACT Budget."
