Mr HOCKEY (North Sydney) (14:09): I join with you, Madam Speaker, in welcoming my constituent and the last Labor Prime Minister to deliver a surplus. Well done! Honourable members interjecting— The SPEAKER: If the member for North Sydney keeps pushing his luck he will not get his question. Mr HOCKEY: Come back! Honourable members interjecting— Mr HOCKEY: My question is to this Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister's statement yesterday that the amount of government revenue is 'far lower than expected by Treasury'. Given that revenue this year is $37 billion larger than last year, and given that tax revenue is $18 billion higher than Treasury forecast in the darkest days of the GFC, how can the Prime Minister honestly claim that her surplus promise is broken because the government is not collecting enough tax off Australians?
