Joe Hockey (North Sydney, Liberal Party, Shadow Treasurer) Share this | Hansard source

My question is to the Treasurer. I remind the Treasurer of his own words in this place, and I quote:

… we had to set about putting some fairness into the taxation system. We had to set about taxing fringe benefits. We had to set about bringing in a capital gains tax.

Given that the Treasurer has now admitted that cabinet is considering tax increases, and not just the Henry review, does the Treasurer still believe that fairness in the tax system is new taxes like capital gains tax and fringe benefits tax?
