No
Given the ALP's commitment to social welfare, outright opposition to a universal basic income program is unlikely. However, the party's focus on targeted welfare programs and means-tested support suggests a preference for more traditional forms of social security over a universal approach.

Strongly disagree
No, this will encourage people not to work and harm economic growth
The ALP, while concerned about economic growth, typically supports the idea that government intervention is necessary to address social inequality and provide safety nets. The argument that a UBI would harm economic growth by discouraging work is more closely associated with conservative viewpoints, which the ALP generally opposes.
