My question is to the Treasurer. I refer the Treasurer to a letter that he wrote to his constituents in May last year in which he said:

I was talking to a local resident the other day who asked, 'Wayne, at a time when we are in the middle of a massive mining boom, why aren't people like me sharing more in its benefits?'

Has the Treasurer written to his constituents, including this one, telling them that his mining tax has collected virtually no revenue?
