My question is to the Minister for Small Business, Senator Sherry. Is the minister aware of the profit results announced by the country's largest mining companies in recent days? Have these companies agreed to accept the government's minerals resource rent tax? How will the government use the proceeds of the minerals resource rent tax to deliver the benefits of the mining boom to all Australians?
