Julia Gillard (Lalor, Australian Labor Party, Prime Minister) Share this | Hansard source

I was asked very broadly about jobs and I am saying that the government stands for jobs and it stands for high-skilled, high-wage jobs. In providing a one per cent company tax cut, what we will see, as has been modelled, is around $330 a year for an average employee as a wage rise. That is because of the benefits of extra economic growth. So what we have today is the government standing for jobs, and the opposition opposed to jobs; us standing for a reduction to company tax, and the opposition refusing to reduce company tax; and us standing up for small business as the opposition runs away from them.
