ANZ has announced a Statutory Profit after tax for the half year ended 31 March 2025 of $3,642 million, up 16% on the previous half. ANZ Chief Executive Officer Shayne Elliott said: 'Our strong performance has again been driven by our continued momentum across each of our divisions, demonstrating the benefits of a stable, consistent strategy combined with sensible, targeted investment. 'We have delivered record half year revenues. This highlights both the strength of our franchise and the step change in our earnings from the inclusion of the first full half of Suncorp Bank's earnings."

Scaling up our new GST return for large businesses
'Large businesses may soon need to lodge a Supplementary annual GST return - find out if your organisation is impacted,' said the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). 'Last year we announced the introduction of the Supplementary annual GST return for large businesses that have had a GST assurance review. The return will allow us to better tailor our engagement with taxpayers and will enable more targeted justified trust reviews requiring less resource investment for many taxpayers. Taxpayers who have high levels of assurance are expected to benefit the most as they've already adopted good practice governance and systems practices.'

Statement on the results for Melbourne
'Adam Bandt has conceded in the seat of Melbourne', said the Australian Greens. 'The Greens have received the highest vote in Melbourne, but One Nation and Liberal preferences will elect the Labor candidate. Bandt has been the Leader of the Australian Greens since 2020 and the Member for Melbourne since 2010, as the first Greens MP to win a Lower House seat at a Federal Election. Since being elected, Bandt has received the highest primary vote of all candidates, and won several times without receiving distributed preferences from either major party, an achievement matched by few if any other non-major party MPs.'

NSW: Review of doli incapax for young offenders under 14
NSW Attorney General Michael Daley has appointed State Parole Authority Chair and former Supreme Court Justice, the Honourable Geoffrey Bellew SC, and former NSW Police Deputy Commissioner, Mr Jeffrey Loy, to review the operation of doli incapax in NSW. Doli incapax is a legal presumption that children between the ages of 10 and 14 do not sufficiently understand the difference between right and wrong to be held criminally responsible. Doli incapax operates as a common law presumption in NSW and can be rebutted if the prosecution proves beyond reasonable doubt a child understood that what they did was seriously wrong.
