My question is to the Prime Minister. This week the Prime Minister and his Treasurer have repeatedly refused to confirm whether their centrepiece $50 billion handout to big business is still in the budget. But this policy has just been supported by government backbenchers in the House—just minutes ago. Prime Minister, will the government's centrepiece policy still be on the books in this year's budget, and what is the point of this government when it cannot hold onto its centrepiece economic strategy from one hour to the next?
