My question is to the Treasurer. Last week the Reserve Bank said that 'very low levels of investment' are a very significant issue for the Australian economy. Given that business investment is down 20 per cent under this Liberal government, and is now at its lowest levels since the last recession, three decades ago, why doesn't the government have a plan to lift business investment and get the economy going again?
