Super co-contribution thresholds

In the 2011-12 Federal Budget, the government announced that the freeze of the indexation applied on the superannuation co-contribution income thresholds will apply for an additional year.

As part of Mid-year economic and fiscal outlook (MYEFO) 2011-12, the government announced further reductions to the co-contributions scheme, for personal contributions made from 1 July 2012.

Table: Reductions to the co-contributions scheme

Year of entitlement	Maximum entitlement	Matching rate	Lower threshold	Higher threshold
2011-12	$1,000	100%	$31,920	$61,920
2012-13	$500	50%	$31,920	$46,920

These proposed changes are not law as they have not been passed by parliament or received royal assent.
