My point of order goes to relevance: I know that Senator Cormann always likes to spruik a company tax cut. The question was actually about the additional tax workers will pay as a result of this government's increase to the Medicare levy. He was asked specifically about workers on $55,000 paying an additional $275 and someone on $80,000 facing an extra $400 in tax. It was specific to the Medicare levy, not on the company tax rate.
