by leave—I move:

That the Senate take note of the further answer given by the Minister for Communications, Information Technology and the Arts (Senator Coonan) to a question without notice asked by me on 10 May 2006 relating to the 2006-07 Budget and to superannuation and the end benefits tax.

Just briefly, I have read that booklet that the minister has referred to. It gives a gross or aggregate figure as to the changes that were announced in the budget but it does not provide the information that I sought in respect to revenue figures from the exit tax. The minister’s response from the Assistant Treasurer is disingenuous, inaccurate and highly misleading.
