Mr President, I ask Senator Conroy a supplementary question. I thank him for giving us the surpluses as a percentage of GDP, but I think the figure he was actually searching for, the dollar figure, is $96 billion. Minister, isn’t it a fact that, if the government’s unconscionable tax grabs on alcopops, gas and cars do not go ahead, the forecast budget surplus will still be almost $90 billion?
