Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I refer to legal advice provided by Bret Walker SC, who said that the intergovernmental agreement requiring that all states agree to any GST changes is not binding against this parliament. Will the government pledge not to change the GST unless every state and territory agrees? And will it rule out using its unilateral power to push ahead with changes regardless?
