My question is to the Prime Minister. In question time yesterday the Prime Minister guaranteed that lower business taxes result in higher wages. But today a leaked survey from the Business Council of Australia reveals that more than 80 per cent of big business have ruled out increasing wages or employing more staff because of the Prime Minister's $65 billion business tax handout. Why is the Prime Minister still claiming that his big business handout will put money in workers' pockets when even big business says it won't?
