The Treasurer used two figures today: roughly speaking, $10 billion raised in GST from fuel taxes since the changes and about $11 billion forgone in excise because of the changes there. It was very short on detail. I thought the parliamentary secretary at some point might be able to get us a more detailed explanation of what the Treasurer was saying in question time today.
