In April this year, the Prime Minister said that the Government would create the Future Made in Australia Act. The following month, in Budget 2024-25, the Treasurer announced a $22.7 billion Future Made in Australia package. And the Government duly introduced the new Future Made in Australia Bill 2024 in July this year.
