My question is to the Treasurer. Does the Treasurer stand by his previous statement:

Disciplined economic managers do not wantonly ignore the advice of Treasury.

Mr Speaker, I seek leave to table the front page of the member’s website, where he says, ‘Disciplined economic managers do not wantonly ignore the advice of Treasury.’

Leave not granted.
