Just very briefly, I would like to take up the Assistant Treasurer's offer to table the press release in his name and the name of the Treasurer from budget night that shows the duplicity of the government and that has been kindly annotated, by my adviser, where the government has been dishonest. They label protecting the corporate tax base as a saving when, in fact, it is a revenue measure. They do the same thing on a more responsive tax system but they slip up on taxation of trust, where they call this a net gain to revenue.
