5Fiscal Outlook Intergovernmental Arrangements Intergovernmental financial relations have changed substantially in the last two years. The reasons are the ongoing implementation of the Council of Australian Governments reform agenda, the effect of the global financial crisis on the finances of all Australian governments including the consequential flow on to both revenues and expenses through economic stimulus payments, the outcome of the Commonwealth Grants Commissions 2010 Review of Relativities and, more recently, the Commonwealths health reform proposals. Further changes are expected as a result of the Henry Tax Review which was released on 2 May 2010.
