Malcolm Turnbull (Wentworth, Liberal Party, Shadow Treasurer) Share this | Hansard source

My question is addressed to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to the Treasurer’s contemptuous description of the expert departmental advice from four departments in relation to FuelWatch as being, in the Treasurer’s words, ‘bureaucratic and academic’. Given the Treasurer’s lack of faith in Public Service advice, why did the government appoint the head of Treasury to head up the government’s own ‘root and branch’ tax review?
