My question is to the Treasurer. Can the Treasurer confirm that his supertax on resource profits will also apply to quarrying for sand and gravel and to mining limestone for cement production? Why wouldn’t an Australian cement production company simply move to China or Indonesia, neither of which is proposing a great big new tax on mining?
