Last week, the former Treasurer, the Treasurer's former boss and the Labor Party national president, Wayne Swan, told the Today show that he was 'very disappointed' in the Reserve Bank and that it was 'punching itself in the face'. Do you agree with this assessment, Minister, and does the Treasurer think that this kind of language is an appropriate way to speak about the independent body, the Reserve Bank, and has the Secretary to the Treasury raised this language with the Treasurer?
