Miners welcome Australia election results as Morrison takes victory

The Australian resources sector has welcomed the results from the May 18 federal election, which was won by a Liberal-led Coalition with Scott Morrison at the helm. “The Coalition government’s strategic economic reform agenda to keep taxes low, in conjunction with responsible 2019/20 Budget measures, provides opportunities for large and small business to be successful. It also means that the mining industry will continue to develop the nation’s minerals for the benefit of everyone,” said the Minerals Council of Australia CEO Tania Constable.
