My question is addressed to the Treasurer. I refer the Treasurer to chapter 5, page 10, of Budget Paper No. 1, which lists $19.7 billion worth of new revenue measures including tax decisions which will increase the price of premixed spirits, increase the price of cars, increase the cost of travel and increase the cost of private health insurance. How does putting up so many prices by increasing taxes help to reduce inflation?
