I ask Senator Cormann, acting for the Treasurer, my first question: why did the Treasurer choose to use male full-time average earnings instead of total average earnings or even median income in the Bills Digest and, I suppose, more broadly, to advertise and promote that this is legislation for middle-income or middle-class Australians?
