Don't expect any big surprises, when the Government releases its Budget at 2pm today.

Infometrics Principal Economist Brad Olsen told Kate Hawkesby pre-Budget statements and announcements show the Government is taking a "back to basics" approach.

He says there isn't nearly as much wriggle room in this Budget as there has been before.

Olsen says it's good to see more restraint, following the Covid budgets of the past few years.
