Chris Bowen (McMahon, Australian Labor Party, Shadow Treasurer) Share this | Hansard source

My question is to the Treasurer. Is the Treasurer aware that last week he failed on no fewer than 12 occasions to confirm that the entire $50 billion handout to big business would be in his budget this year? Is the Treasurer also aware that over the weekend the Prime Minister did what he could not and confirmed the entire tax cut would be in the budget? Given the Treasurer's clear incompetence, will he now stand down and take a pay cut, instead of inflicting a pay cut on 700,000 Australians?
