Everything that this government does in terms of policy and in terms of framing each of its budgets is about improving the standard of living of Australians. At the heart of that is seeking to pursue policies that will increase growth, introducing policies that will increase growth, because we know that a growing economy means more jobs and the best poverty buster known is a job. Everything we do is about helping to create an economic environment that is conducive to business growing, prospering and employing people. That was our approach in our first two budgets; it will be the approach that we take in the coming budget.
