Let me assure Senator Sheldon that if he has a very good look through the information that was supplied to him he will see how our plan will deliver a stronger economy, with more jobs and stronger wages growth into the future, certainly stronger wages growth than would have been achieved on the back of Labor's higher taxes. We have legislated—and we were opposed by Labor every step of the way—$300 billion in additional increases in take-home pay through our income tax relief that you opposed. That's $300 billion that will end up in the pockets of individual Australians, that you opposed.
