Mr TAYLOR (Hume) (15:23): Speaker, I wish to make a personal explanation. The SPEAKER: Do you claim to have been misrepresented? Mr TAYLOR: Most egregiously. The SPEAKER: Please proceed. Mr TAYLOR: Today, the Treasurer claimed that I was incorrect in stating that core inflation was going down in peer countries but rising in Australia. When it comes to core inflation since December, the facts are as follows: between December and now— Dr Chalmers interjecting— The SPEAKER: Order! The Treasurer will cease interjecting. Mr TAYLOR: the Australian core inflation rate rose by 0.4 per cent, from four to 4.4. In that time, in Sweden it went down by 2.3 percentage points; in the UK it went down by 1.6; in Norway it went down by 1.4; in Canada it went down by 0.8; in New Zealand it went down by 0.7; in the Euro area it went down by 0.5; in the US it went down by 0.5; and in Switzerland it went down by 0.3. And, in each of the last four months, the Australian core inflation rate has gone up. Dr Jim is running out of spin. The SPEAKER: Just before I call the Leader of the Opposition, the member for Hume is always the first to talk about correct titles. We just need to— Mr Taylor: I forgot. The SPEAKER: Just don't forget in the future.
