My question is again to the Prime Minister. I refer to his claim that productivity growth is just fine. Prime Minister, if productivity growth is surging, why does the Treasurer’s Intergenerational report show economy-wide productivity this decade will just be 1.5 per cent on average per year, well below our long-run average? Prime Minister, is the Treasurer’s Intergenerational report wrong?
