Chris Bowen (McMahon, Australian Labor Party, Shadow Treasurer) Share this | Hansard source

My question is to the Treasurer. I refer to the principle of cabinet solidarity outlined in the Cabinet Handbook, which applies to all ministers. Is the Treasurer aware of conflicting media reports of the Treasurer's loyalty, with the Treasurer reportedly doing the numbers for the Prime Minister and for the member for Dickson and for himself? Does the Treasurer retain enough confidence in the Prime Minister, the government and its policies to remain as Treasurer?
