Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Given that over 120 MPs will still get a golden handshake in an excessive superannuation payout when they leave parliament, is the government willing to put an end to this abuse of taxpayers’ dollars and rein in the obscene parliamentary superannuation scheme to demonstrate that it is serious about stopping over-the-top executive salaries and that it is willing to lead by example on this issue? Yes or no: is it game over for these excessive parliamentary superannuation payouts?
