My question is again to the Treasurer. I refer him to the page he just referred me to, where it says, ‘The budget is currently projected to return to surplus in 2015-16.’ Treasurer, in order to meet your own Prime Minister’s statement that net debt will be paid off by 2022, what will be the surpluses required each year, every year to pay off that debt?
