Senator GALLAGHER (Australian Capital Territory—Minister for the Public Service, Minister for Finance, Minister for Women, Manager of Government Business in the Senate and Vice-President of the Executive Council) (14:17): I thank Senator McKim for the question and his ongoing interest in this portfolio space. I recognise, and I think we all recognise in this chamber, that there are different views around the stage 3 tax cuts, but our policy and our position on those tax cuts haven't changed. Our priority when it comes to tax reform is the tax reform we outlined in the October budget, which is around ensuring multinationals pay their fair share of tax here in Australia. We also acknowledge that those tax cuts aren't scheduled to come in until 2024, and we are focused on the near-term challenges in the economy, including how we ease cost-of-living pressures on households. The inflation challenge and dealing with the associated cost-of-living impacts that it's having are our main focus in terms of the economic portfolio. But you raise a broader question as well, around the budget and pressures on the budget. There is no doubt that the economic and budget vandals that sit opposite us had left the budget in such a terrible state— Senator Mc Grath: I don't think that's patently true. Senator GALLAGHER: Well, I'm not going to let you get away with this view. I'm not. The zombie measures, the terminating measures, the pork-barrelling and the failure to deal with the big pressures on the budget that happened on your watch—we have been left to resolve them. We are the responsible fiscal managers of the budget, and people will see, as we go through the detail of what we inherited, just what vandals you were. Looking out and saying, 'We're managing everything,' while sweeping it all under the carpet; pork-barrelling to friends; failing to fund things properly, and having them all fall off a funding cliff in June this year—that's the legacy you leave, and that's the challenge that we are dealing with in the budget. The PRESIDENT: Senator McKim, first supplementary?
