The point I am making is that what's underpinning this question is an assumption that a particular threshold will not change for 30 years. And the point I'm making is that there are a range of thresholds in our tax system, and we see in our tax system that thresholds are reviewed from time to time, and that there was a threshold in the superannuation system that was introduced by those opposite that was not indexed. That is the connection to the question raised by those opposite. I reiterate that this is a policy that affects half a per cent, and it is a fair and modest measure.
