QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Mr ALBANESE (Grayndler—Prime Minister) (15:12): The only people arguing for higher taxes are those opposite, who, before the member was here, all voted for higher taxes. When it comes to the diesel tax rebate, the fact is that it's been in place for some time. We haven't changed anything there.

Those opposite are the only people who have stood for higher taxes. The question is: will they do what they said they would do before the election, which is that they would come in here and introduce legislation for higher taxes? We've seen them come in here and introduce different private members' bills.

I wonder whether the member will move such a private members' bill.
