The answer to the honourable member's question is:

(1) The Department of Home Affairs from time to time receives Questions on Notice (QoNs) relating to the disclosure of revenue modelling and assumptions that support an agreed revenue measure. For these types of QoNs, the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet (PM&C) have advised that any disclosure of the revenue model and associated assumptions could potentially reveal the deliberations of the Cabinet, which are confidential.

(2) The Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, Migrant Services and Multicultural Affairs provided a response in line with PM&C advice. Questions relating to the actions of the Treasurer would be a matter for the Treasury.
