The graphic is a bar chart showing historical (1980–81 to 2008–09) and projected (2009–10 to 2014–15) federal debt as a share of GDP. The chart shows that the debt-to-GDP ratio of the federal government peaked in 1995–96 at 68.4 per cent of GDP, falling to 29.0 per cent of GDP in 2008-09. The debt-to-GDP ratio is projected to rise to 35.4 per cent in 2010–11, the final year of the Action Plan, before resuming its downward path in 2011–12, declining to 31.9 per cent in 2014–15.
