My question is to the Treasurer. I refer the Treasurer to his statement that the job creation record of this government is unequalled anywhere in the world. Is the Treasurer aware that without the advantage of a mining boom and the 150-year record high terms of trade, Germany has added over 2 million jobs over this period, Korea 1.2 million, and that in percentage terms jobs growth has been stronger in Mexico, Turkey, Luxembourg and even Chile? Why can the Treasurer not get his facts right? (Time expired)
