I do not agree that David Murray endorsed Labor's policy on negative gearing, so I reject the premise of the question. What I would say is that this government will continue to assess the tax system as a whole for opportunities to make our tax system more growth friendly so that we can strengthen growth and create more jobs in a way that is fair. Obviously, as we do in the lead-up to any budget, we will be considering all of the information, assessing all of the options and making judgments on what is in the national interest. Those decisions will be announced and reflected as appropriate in the budget on the second Tuesday in May.
