Введение
Казначей Австралии, также известный как Федеральный казначей или просто казначей, — это министр Австралийского Содружества, ответственный за надзор за сбором государственных доходов, федеральными расходами и экономической политикой как глава Министерства казначейства. Действующим казначеем является Джим Чалмерс, назначенный премьер-министром Энтони Албаньесом в мае 2022 года после федеральных выборов в Австралии 2022 года. Казначей реализует свои полномочия через Министерство казначейства и ряд других государственных органов. В соответствии с конституционной практикой, казначей всегда является членом парламента Австралии, представляющим Палату представителей. Эта должность обычно считается эквивалентной должности канцлера казначейства в Соединенном Королевстве, министра финансов в Соединенных Штатах или, в некоторых других странах, министра финансов. Это одна из всего четырех министерских должностей (наряду с должностями премьер-министра, министра обороны и генерального прокурора), которые существуют с момента образования Федерации.
Australian government minister in charge of economic policy
The treasurer of Australia, also known as the Federal treasurer or simply the treasurer, is the minister of state of the Commonwealth of Australia charged with overseeing government revenue collection, federal expenditure and economic policy as the head of the Department of the Treasury. The current treasurer is Jim Chalmers, who was selected by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese in May 2022 following the 2022 Australian federal election. The Treasurer implements ministerial powers through the Department of the Treasury and a range of other government agencies. According to constitutional convention, the Treasurer is always a member of the Parliament of Australia with a seat in the House of Representatives. The office is generally seen as equivalent to the Chancellor of the Exchequer in the United Kingdom or the Secretary of the Treasury in the United States or, in some other countries, the finance minister. It is one of only four ministerial positions (along with Prime Minister, Minister for Defence and Attorney General) that have existed since Federation.

Ответственность и обязанности
Казначей – министр, отвечающий за государственные доходы и расходы. Казначей осуществляет надзор за экономической политикой: фискальная политика находится в его непосредственной ответственности, в то время как денежно-кредитная политика реализуется политически независимым Резервным банком Австралии, председатель которого назначается Казначеем. Казначей также осуществляет контроль за финансовым регулированием. Каждый год в мае Казначей представляет Федеральный бюджет парламенту. Премьер-министр и Казначей традиционно являются членами Палаты представителей, однако Конституция не содержит такого требования. Эта традиция обусловлена тем, что согласно Конституции соответствующие законопроекты должны инициироваться в Палате представителей, и если Казначей является сенатором, он не сможет их вносить. Это также означало бы, что другому министру пришлось бы произносить общенациональное телевизионное обращение по бюджету и представлять законопроекты. Хотя ни один федеральный Казначей не был членом Сената, в штатах Новый Южный Уэльс, Виктория, Тасмания и Южная Австралия были государственные Казначеи, которые являлись членами Законодательных советов – верхних палат штатов. В отличие от ситуации, когда Казначей, являющийся сенатором, не может представить бюджет в Палате представителей, государственные Казначеи, бывшие членами верхних палат, представляли свои бюджеты в соответствующих нижних палатах. Должность Казначея – очень высокий правительственный пост, обычно занимающий второе или третье место в кабинете министров. Исторически многие Казначеи ранее, одновременно или впоследствии занимали должности Премьер-министра или Вице-премьера; двое впоследствии стали Генерал-губернаторами. Служба в качестве Казначея считается важным (хотя и не обязательным) условием для занятия должности Премьер-министра: на сегодняшний день шесть Казначеев стали Премьер-министрами. Пол Китинг и Уэйн Свон в настоящее время являются единственными двумя, кто был удостоен звания «Министр финансов года» журналом Euromoney. С 1958 года Казначеи в коалиционных правительствах часто, но не всегда, были заместителями председателя Либеральной партии. В отличие от этого, лишь четверо Казначеев от Лейбористской партии также занимали должность заместителя лидера Лейбористской партии.
The Treasurer is the minister in charge of government revenue and expenditure. The Treasurer oversees economic policy: fiscal policy is within the Treasurer's direct responsibility, while monetary policy is implemented by the politically independent Reserve Bank of Australia, the head of which is appointed by the Treasurer. The Treasurer also oversees financial regulation. Each year in May, the Treasurer presents the Federal Budget to the Parliament. The Prime Minister and Treasurer are traditionally members of the House, but the Constitution does not have such a requirement. The tradition is due to the fact that under the constitution, appropriate bills have to originate from the House, and if the Treasurer is a senator, they would not be able to introduce the bills. This would also mean another minister would need to give the nationally televised budget speech and introduce the bills. While no Federal Treasurer has been a member of the Senate, New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia had state Treasurers who had served as members of the Legislative Councils, the states' upper houses. Unlike the scenario in which a Treasurer who is a Senator cannot present the budget in the House of Representatives, state treasurers who have been members of upper houses have delivered their budgets in the respective lower houses. The Treasurer is a very senior government post, usually ranking second or third in Cabinet. Historically, many Treasurers have previously, concurrently or subsequently served as Prime Minister or Deputy Prime Minister; two subsequently served as Governor General. Service as Treasurer is seen as an important (though certainly not essential) qualification for serving as Prime Minister: to date, six Treasurers have gone on to be Prime Minister. Paul Keating and Wayne Swan are currently the only two to have been named "Euromoney Finance Minister of the Year" by Euromoney magazine. Since 1958, Treasurers in Coalition governments have often but not always been the deputy leader of the Liberal Party. In contrast, only four Labor Treasurers have also been the deputy leader of the Labor Party.
