My question is addressed to the Prime Minister. This afternoon the Prime Minister has said that gross debt will peak at $300 billion and a few minutes later the Treasurer has said that it will peak at $315 billion. If the Prime Minister and the Treasurer cannot agree on these figures in the budget, what confidence can the Australian people have that they are able to manage our trillion dollar economy?
