My question is to the Minister for Finance, Senator Gallagher, relating to taxation proposals debated at last week's productivity roundtable. The proposal was to force homeowners with a spare bedroom to take in strangers as renters under threat of financial penalty—a tax—if they don't. Why did the roundtable even consider this monstrous idea, and will you now rule the idea out so our elderly can have peace of mind they won't have strangers forced into their family homes?
