The Austaxpolicy editorial board thanks all our contributors and readers for your support throughout the year. We wish you a joyful and relaxing Christmas and New Year holiday season.

In January 2024, we welcomed Max Bruce as an editor. Although Max stepped down in September to join the Administrative Review Tribunal, we are deeply grateful for his contributions during his time with us.

After publishing 60 posts in 2024, we are taking a short break. The blog will return in the first week of February. Thank you for being part of our journey, and we look forward to sharing more insights with you in 2025!
