My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Cormann. Over the last two years, wages have grown by only four per cent while company profits have increased by a massive 32 per cent. This morning, the finance minister twice refused to endorse the Prime Minister's claim that a $65 billion big-business tax cut will increase wages. I give the minister another opportunity. Will the minister echo the Prime Minister and guarantee an increase in real wage growth as a result of its $65 billion handout to big business?
