My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Finance. Can the minister confirm that the Minister for Finance said:

We went to the last election promising no increases in taxes on investment—specifically, no reduction in the capital gains tax discount, no changes to negative gearing—we stick to our commitments.

Does this reflect the position of the government? Is the budget being drawn up according to the principles of the finance minister?
