To help make sense of it, Treasurer Josh Frydenberg has created an exclusive video message for The Daily Telegraph’s readers outlining how they will benefit from the measures in his budget.

From a massive tradie investment package, slashing the fuel excise to make filling up your car cheaper, major infrastructure spending and incentives to help small and medium businesses, there’s plenty on offer to help NSW.

Mr Frydenberg will reveal what’s the budget that readers should look out for as the state focuses on rebuilding after the Covid-19 pandemic.

Treasury figures show unemployment is expected to fall to just 3.75 per cent, while the budget bottom line will be about $20 billion better off than expected at the last update.
