Senator CORMANN (Western Australia—Leader of the Government in the Senate, Minister for Finance, Special Minister of State and Vice-President of the Executive Council) (14:49): We're now going over old ground. You're just asking the same question that was asked earlier this week. What I would say to you again is that the Productivity Commission draft report is not a government report—it's not a government proposal—it's a draft report to government. It is currently the subject of further consultation— The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Cormann, please resume your seat. Senator Wong, on a point of order. Senator Wong: This is the second time this week the Minister for Finance and the Leader of the Government in the Senate has been asked a direct question, which is to rule out any cuts to the GST to South Australia and Tasmania. We're giving him another opportunity to rule it out. The PRESIDENT: Order! Senator Cormann is directly addressing the terms of the question. Senator Cormann. Senator CORMANN: There is no proposal to cut GST to South Australia and Tasmania, and Senator Wong knows it. This is just another Labor attempt to mislead the Australian people. There is a process underway and, ultimately, if the federal government were to adopt certain recommendations in the final report that is yet to be received, that would be subject to appropriate processes, including through the Council of Australian Governments and, ultimately, to the requirement of unanimous agreement amongst all state and territory governments. This is just further Labor Party scaremongering, because you haven't got anything better to talk about. The PRESIDENT: Senator Farrell, a final supplementary question. Senator FARRELL: Given that the minister and the Turnbull government have again refused to rule out cuts to South Australia and Tasmania's share of the GST, isn't it now clear that Liberal senators will say one thing in their home state but tow the Liberal line in Canberra?
