My question is to the Treasurer. I refer the Treasurer to comments made about the mining tax by the member for Griffith—who is not here; he might be crunching numbers. I quote:

We had reservations about embarking on something so complex but Wayne's view was that without it, his credentials as a reforming treasurer would be shot to pieces.

Given the mining tax has raised just $126 million in its first six months of operation, when will the Treasurer face the fact that all his revised tax has achieved is that his credentials have indeed been shot to pieces? (Time expired)
