Standing up for seniors and pensioners in the Barton community is a top priority of Linda Burney's. This year's budget has delivered for this group of people who play crucial roles in our communities and families.

The Albanese Labor Government has fought hard to protect older Australians from Coalition attacks on Medicare, delivered more medicines on the PBS and topped up the Age Pension work bonus income bank.

On top of delivering 60-day prescriptions and 58 bulk-billed Medicare Urgent Care Clinics across the country, we are also putting the care back into aged care, to make sure older Australians are treated with the respect they deserve.

Inside this kit you'll find many of the ways this government is supporting our 4.2 million older Australians, as well as all the information you need to access government services, general safety tips and ways to keep more of your money.

Also included are the latest pension payment rates. This year the kit is also available in Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), which I hope is of use to our wonderful Chinese community in Barton!
