I thank Senator Stewart for the supplementary. I can confirm that every woman taxpayer in Victoria will get a tax cut from 1 July. Of those, 1½ million women, or 90 per cent, will get a bigger tax cut than they would under the Morrison proposal. In Tasmania, every woman taxpayer—140,000 of them—will get a tax cut and 94 per cent of them will get a bigger tax cut. In WA, every woman taxpayer will get a tax cut and, of those 600,000 women, 90 per cent will get a bigger tax cut. In South Australia, 93 per cent will get a bigger tax cut. In the ACT, every single woman will get a tax cut. Of those, 120,000 women, or 86 per cent, will get a bigger tax cut. In the Northern Territory, 83 per cent will get a bigger tax cut. In New South Wales, 1.8 million women, or 88 per cent, will get a bigger tax cut. And in Queensland, 1.2 million women, or 92 per cent, will get a bigger tax cut. (Time expired)
