Stephen Anthony, head of Canberra-based budget forecasting firm Macro- economics, said the opposition’s fiscal strategy was “very troubling” given what he described as a “complete and utter lack of detail”. “What we have here . . . is a further structural weakening in the foundation of the fiscal strategy,” he said. “Without a framework there’s no compass, so on the face of it, this sounds like a slippage, not an enhancement.” Opposition Leader Tony Abbott came under more pressure on Monday over his spending plans with Labor focusing on his paid parental leave scheme and even key frontbencher Malcolm Turnbull struggling to support it.
