Mr SHARMA (Wentworth) (14:50): My question is to the Treasurer. How is the Morrison government's long history of cutting taxes helping Australian families and businesses keep more of what they earn? How are our values of keeping taxes low securing our economic recovery and is the Treasurer aware of any alternative approaches? The SPEAKER: The Manager of Opposition Business on a point of order in relation to the question? Mr Burke: Yes. You've previously made a ruling about alternative policies being allowed to be asked about, but it hasn't been raised at the end of a question before as to what your ruling is on alternative approaches where it doesn't go to policies. Standing orders are quite clear that ministers can be asked about their area of responsibility. You have allowed that to be extended to policies that are not within their responsibility. To allow that tag and for it to go to approaches beyond policy takes it completely beyond the responsibility of the minister, outside Practice and outside standing orders. The SPEAKER: I thank the Manager of Opposition Business for the point of order. I am happy to stand corrected on this, but from memory you raised that on day 1 in relation to policies and approaches. I'm happy to have that debate with you on another day, but my recollection is that you raised both those issues on day 1 of me taking the chair. In my view, the question remains within the standing orders. I will rule that the question is valid. The Treasurer has the call.
