It needs to first demonstrate that the reforms are not reforms for reform's sake—that they will deliver stronger growth and greater opportunities; that they will be fair, ensuring that the burden of taxation is borne in an equitable manner across the economy; and that they will encourage innovation and growth and so forth. But we also have to demonstrate that we have listened to every view—that we have consulted widely, that we have not taken things off the table in some sort of panic response to feeble scare campaigns but have gone about the business of government in an open and adult way, taking account of all of the matters that are relevant and then coming to a thoroughly informed conclusion. The Australian people should expect nothing less from a responsible government.
