Record investment is tipped to be in Australia's Federal Budget, that's released tonight.
It's expected to pump billions of dollars into the economy, as the Government focusses on recovering from the pandemic.
Aged care, childcare, infrastructure and job creation are some areas seeing a cash injection.
