Senator CONROY (Victoria—Deputy Leader of the Opposition in the Senate) (14:54): Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Can the minister confirm that, under his watch, the tax to GDP ratio goes up and up and up every year and is higher than it ever was under the former Labor government? Given that spending, taxes, the deficit and debt are all up, don't your own numbers show that you are the worst finance minister in this country's history?
