My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. The Albanese government's taxpayer funded talkfest last week has produced nothing but suggestions for new and higher taxes, including a spare bedroom tax, removing capital gains tax exemptions from the family home, a wealth tax, an increase to the GST, higher taxes on super and a business training tax. Given the Treasurer has consistently said that nothing is off the table but the Prime Minister has said he won't introduce any new taxes not taken to the election, will the Prime Minister rule out new or increased taxes during this term of parliament?
