Minister, this morning you were asked on ABC radio whether you accepted that people are concerned about Labor's new family car tax and that it's a live issue in the electorate that people are concerned that their car prices will increase. You said, 'I accept that.' Why is the government so determined to introduce a family car tax on SUVs, four-wheel drives and utes that is so extreme that most hybrid cars will also be subject to Labor's family car tax and it will drive up the cost of living for all Australians?
