My question is to the Minister representing the Treasurer, Senator Sherry. I refer to the news today that Liberal MP and former Parliamentary Secretary to the Treasurer Chris Pearce now supports Family First’s policy of cutting petrol tax by 10c a litre. That is in addition to the news last month that the coalition did a U-turn and has come halfway to Family First’s policy by supporting a petrol tax cut of 5c. Would the minister confirm whether there are also closet petrol tax cut supporters in the Rudd government?
