My question is to the Treasurer. I refer to the 28 times the government used their new 'comeback' slogan in question time yesterday, though there have been only seven today. Can the Treasurer confirm his department's evidence to the Senate that the slogan came from an advertising agency and that taxpayers are being slugged $15 million to put the slogan on bus shelters and billboards? How many of the nearly one million unemployed Australians would have a job if the government spent more time on jobs and less time on marketing and slogans?
