I can confirm that Senator Cameron is internally cheering me on all the time. I'm grateful that the minister has outlined his commitment to lowering taxes for business, but I note that an often used business vehicle is the Toyota LandCruiser, which attracts an estimated $3,000 in import taxes, the type of which are collectively costing Australian car buyers over $650 million this financial year alone. That is over and above the tariff impost that I referred to in my previous question. I ask the minister: will you please review and repeal all taxes on imported motor vehicles?
