Mr Speaker, my question is to the Treasurer. We have heard the Prime Minister talking about flip, flop, flap. Will the Treasurer rule out slip, slop or slapping a new tax, levy or compulsory fees on university students?

I am not ruling anything in or out, whether it is slip, slop, slap or anything else, because we are in a budget process.
