Budget Paper No. 2 | Budget 2024–25


Problem being addressed
Sport Integrity Australia's responsibilities include being Australia’s National Anti-Doping Organisation, providing a comprehensive anti-doping program for the Australian sport community and administering the National Integrity Framework which is a set of policies all members of sports need to follow when it comes to their behaviour and conduct in sport. Despite threats to sport becoming more sophisticated, over 50% of the Sport Integrity Australia's funding is tied to terminating measures ceasing on 30 June 2024. Without integrity underpinning participation, the benefits that sport delivers to the Australian community are at risk of being lost.

$107 million to support phase out of live sheep exports by sea | Ministers (agriculture.gov.au)

Problem being addressed
Live sheep exports by sea have been a part of the Australian sheep industry for generations. There are ongoing community concerns about the treatment and conditions sheep experience once they leave Australia. Repeated animal welfare incidents have led to reviews and regulatory changes. These changes have not entirely removed the risks inherent in the live sheep by sea export trade, in relation to which the Australian public continues to hold concerns. The Government committed at the 2022 election to phase out live sheep exports by sea.

Delivering a future remade in Australia | Ministers (dcceew.gov.au)


Problem being addressed
  The current 'linear' economy model does not consistently price environmental impacts, so these impacts may not be considered in decisions on production and consumption, leading to environmental degradation.  As a major purchaser of goods and services, the Australian Government’s procurement decisions can contribute to these negative environmental impacts.
