My question again is to the Prime Minister. Does the Prime Minister agree with the BCA in its 2007-08 budget submission when it said:

Despite strong growth over the past decade, the level of labour productivity in Australia remains well below that achieved in other OECD countries. More worryingly, labour productivity growth has slowed sharply in Australia. This deterioration in productivity performance is a very real concern.

Prime Minister, has the BCA fundamentally got it wrong as well?
