The 2002 Treasury Inter-Generational Report predicted major social and fiscal challenges during the next 40 years as a result of population ageing. Unlike Europe, the US and Canada, Australia has not yet developed the modelling tools to help it assess the current and future distributional consequences of the required forthcoming changes in social and fiscal policy. This project will develop the necessary modelling infrastructure for the Commonwealth and for Australia. It will create a sophisticated decision support capacity that can be used to assess the long-term impact of policy change and the likely future retirement incomes and other characteristics of Australians.

《2002年财政部代际报告》预测，由于人口老龄化，今后40年将面临重大的社会和财政挑战。与欧洲、美国和加拿大不同，澳大利亚尚未开发出模型工具，以帮助其评估社会和财政政策即将发生的必要变化对当前和未来分配的影响。该项目将为英联邦和澳大利亚开发必要的建模基础设施。它将建立一个复杂的决策支持能力，可用于评估政策变化的长期影响以及澳大利亚人未来可能的退休收入和其他特征。
