"Political attention over the past few weeks has been fixed on the drama
of the Abbott government’s first budget – the winners and losers, the
problem of broken promises, the prospects in the Senate. Beyond that,
though, the budget reinforces another trend of potentially great
significance for the quality of Australian democracy. Since its
beginnings, the government has made a series of decisions that mean
public scrutiny of its policies and their implementation is more difficult."
