There’s no doubt any financial relief would be welcome considering a survey by the Queensland Council of Social Services has found 94 per cent of the state is worried about cost of living.

Weekly budgets are blowing out for nearly all types of households due to unaffordable housing, grocery, energy and petrol costs.

An average family, classified as a couple with two children, is currently $116 over budget each week, an improvement from $198 last year, while a single parent is $156 in the red each week compared with $255 in 2023.

The largest budget adjustment was for housing, with two-thirds of Queenslanders increasing spending on their rent, mortgage or insurance payments.

Energy and food spending also shot up over 60 per cent, and fuel another 58 per cent.
