() (): My question is to the Prime Minister. It relates to the Prime Minister's last answer. I remind the Prime Minister that in 2007 the Labor Party promised that superannuation would be changed by 'not one jot, not one tittle' and then after the election it cut super co-contribution benefits for low-income earners from $1,500 under the Howard government to just $500, ripping more than $3.3 billion away from low-income earners. Yesterday the Prime Minister ruled out tax on super withdrawals for over 60s, but why should Australian people believe the Prime Minister this time? (Time expired)
