asked the Minister for Finance and Deregulation, upon notice, on 16 November 2010:

Given that Chapter 1 of Professor Pollard's 1974 report (Report on the Treasurer's Proposals for a new Superannuation Scheme for Australian Government Employees, dated June 1974) made very clear recommendations that he believed that the 'Commonwealth Servant' was entitled to 'a share of national productivity', and that, as such, retirement incomes should be indexed by a factor of 1.4 times the consumer price index, can the Minister confirm that Mr Matthews was provided with a full and unabridged copy of the 1974 Pollard Report.
