Linkers may be interested in the feedback below and the budget high level info 
(which is in HTML), though I couldn't find any detail:
> Investing in the future - three new nation building funds
> 
>     * The Government will invest current and future budget surpluses in three nation building funds.
>     * The Building Australia Fund will fund shortfalls in national transport and broadband infrastructure.
>     * The Education Investment Fund will fund capital expenditure in Australia's higher education institutions.
>     * The Health and Hospitals Fund will finance the renewal and refurbishment of the nation's hospitals and health facilities and fund major medical research projects.
