Kids bonus cruises through parliament

Kids bonus cruises through parliament,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
More than one million families with school children are to receive a cash bonus in June after the government's budget measure passed the Senate,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Prime Minister Julia Gillard and Treasurer Wayne Swan spent most of Wednesday and Thursday talking up the SchoolKids Bonus,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which was one of the centrepieces of the 2012/13 budget.
The bill cruised through the Senate on Thursday,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], passing by 37 votes to 32 with the support of the Greens after crashing through the lower house on Wednesday,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], despite the opposition of the coalition parties.
Once ratified,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the laws will deliver 1.3 million families cash payments of $410 a year for primary school children and $820 a year for secondary students as part of an overall package worth $2.1 billion to help parents pay for school needs like books and shoes.
The first payments - which replace an education tax refund and will be funded by mining tax proceeds - are due to go out before June 30 and will be paid every January and July thereafter,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
But Opposition Leader Tony Abbott has said the bonus amounts to a 'bribe' and there is no guarantee that families will spend the cash handouts on education expenses,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Ms Gillard said Mr Abbott 'could not explain' why he supported the Howard government's baby bonus but has rejected Labor's school kids bonus,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Critics at the time dubbed the Howard government's $5294 baby bonus the 'plasma bonus',[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
'I believe Mr Abbott is out of touch with working families because only someone out of touch could vote against giving people a helping hand,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],' Ms Gillard told ABC Radio on Thursday.
