Next Monday I’ll be appearing, via Zoom, at a public hearing of the Queensland Parliament’s Inquiry into the Queensland Government’s economic response to COVID-19. I’m a member of a Panel of Economic Experts which also includes UQ Professor John Quiggin, Griffith Professor Tony Makin, and Richard Denniss, Chief Economist of the Australia Institute. We’re appearing from 11.10am and the proceedings will be live-streamed via Parliament TV. Check out the program and link to Parliament TV here:
