Malcolm Turnbull (Wentworth, Liberal Party, Shadow Treasurer) Share this | Hansard source

My question is addressed to the Prime Minister. Has the Treasury provided advice to the government on its minimum wage submission that includes a recommended specific dollar increase? Will the Prime Minister confirm that the government is planning not to recommend that specific dollar increase in its submission? Why, if the fight against inflation is the government’s No. 1 priority, does the government lack the courage to follow Treasury’s advice? Or does the Prime Minister prefer that the Fair Pay Commission accept the ACTU’s ambit claim?
