Government posts more than $5b deficit

Expenditure for the six months ending 30 September 2011 was more than $156b.

Meanwhile government revenue was almost $151b for the same period.

A report by the Information Services Department said the deficit was due to salaries and profits taxes being mostly received toward the end of a financial year.
