Budget 2022 delivers more access to export support

Budget 2022 has delivered Australia’s export tourism businesses further support through funding to the all-important Export Marketing Development Grants (EMDG) which helps businesses to promote themselves in international markets. 

As we now head into an election, we will be calling on both parties to outline their tourism policy platforms and the actions they will take in Government to help tourism export businesses to fully maximise their capacity, support them to get back to market quickly and effectively, and ensure they can deliver the good outcomes for the economy which have previously been achieved.” 

We welcome this additional funding, along with the lifting of caps on some visa classes, as good investments for the industry but will continue to highlight further policy and financial supports needed by the industry. 

“Yesterday’s Federal Budget reiterated the Governments commitments to the tourism industry as announced over the past few weeks but we are pleased to see additional funding allocated to the EMDG program,” ATEC Managing Director Peter Shelley said. 

A bigger pot, and revised criteria for the EMDG has been a priority request put to Government by ATEC over the past year and tourism exporters will be pleased to see the call has been heeded.
