My question is to the Prime Minister. Less than a week ago, the Prime Minister told Australians, 'There's no question that you will see a rise in wages with a reduction in company tax.' But more than 80 per cent of big businesses have now ruled out increasing wages or employing more staff because of the Prime Minister's $65 billion big business handout. When the Prime Minister said there would be a rise in wages, was he referring to a rise in wages for senior executives and CEOs?
