My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Minister Wong. The Prime Minister said last night:

I was pretty up-front in December. I said we were looking at ways for cost-of-living pressures to be relieved.

But Treasury confirmed on Monday that it was preparing work on changing the stage 3 tax cuts from 11 December, and, when asked about this on 21 December, the Prime Minister said:

Well, we've made no decisions along those lines. We're not reconsidering that position.

Will you now apologise on behalf of the Prime Minister for the deliberate way in which he has misled the Australian people?
