Travel agents have been warned not to expect much from this year’s Federal Budget, but that hasn’t stopped the sector’s peak body from continuing to push for continued support.
The Australian Federation of Travel Agents (AFTA) has eight of its directors in Canberra for this week’s Federal Budget sittings, with Treasurer Josh Frydenburg to share the government’s big spending plans tonight.
Chair Tom Manwaring, vice chairs Graham “Skroo” Turner and Christian Hunter, David Smith, Laura Ruffles, David Greenland, David Padman and Jo Sully are all volunteering their time to spend several days in the nation’s capital lobbying and briefing stakeholders across the political spectrum and participating in all key events.
