My question is to the Minister for Finance, Senator Cormann. Yesterday in question time the minister told the Senate that 'by any measure, inequality has not worsened in recent years'. Wages growth is at the lowest level since the wage price index was first published in 1998. The Governor of the Reserve Bank, Philip Lowe, has described the situation as a 'wage crisis'. Has the minister told Dr Lowe that he is wrong?
