My question is to the Treasurer. I refer the Treasurer to recent comments by respected market journalist Michael Pascoe:

… the evidence keeps mounting that his—

the Treasurer's—

… (midyear economic and fiscal outlook) forecasts were rubbery.

Does the Treasurer stand by the economic assumptions in the midyear economic forecast which contributed to a $68 billion deterioration in the budget since the election?
