I thank the member for his question. The change to the non-resident tax rate of 32½ per cent was introduced by the member for Lilley, given, as case law has demonstrated, backpackers are nonresidents for tax purposes. The revenue that was put in that budget for 2012-13—to go to the member's question—was $19.3 billion in 2012-13, $22.2 billion in 2013-14, and $22.2 billion in 2014-15 and $25.2 billion in 2015-16.
