Mr OAKESHOTT (Lyne) (14:25): My question is to the Treasurer. Treasurer, comprehensive tax reform advocates like New South Wales Treasurer Mike Baird, Ken Henry, and myself and many other MPs, have been repeatedly making the point that only 10 taxes in Australia do 90 per cent of the work of raising revenue to fund government services, while the other 115 taxes only do 10 per cent of the work. Treasurer, do you accept this basic point and what are you doing to reduce the number of inefficient taxes in Australia?
