My question again is to the Treasurer, and I refer to the Treasurer's previous answer. Given that the Treasurer just ruled out including the family home in the pension assets test by affirming that the government's policy will not change, why won't he also rule out increasing the GST to 15 per cent, which will push up the price of everything for pensioners?
