My question is to the Minister representing the Treasurer, Senator Gallagher. During the federal election campaign the now Prime Minister and now Treasurer promised there would be no changes to Australia's franking credits regime. In January 2021 he said, 'I can confirm Labor will not be taking any changes to franking credits to the next election.' Does the recent budget measure titled 'Improving the integrity of off-market share buy-backs' involve changes to franking credits?
