Senator McKim has submitted a proposal, under standing order 75, today, which has been circulated and is shown on the Dynamic Red:
The need for the Australian Government to reform their $181 billion tax breaks for wealthy property investors and their 5% deposit scheme which are threatening the stability of our housing system while the big banks are on track to make $30 billion in profits this financial year.
