My question is to the Minister for Finance, Senator Cormann. It has today been revealed that, in the Business Council of Australia's letter to senators, Australia's biggest businesses deleted a commitment to 'increase wages'. How can the minister claim the government's $65 billion handout will increase wages when even the companies advocating for this handout refuse to make such a commitment?
