QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Dr MULINO (Fraser—Assistant Treasurer and Minister for Financial Services) (15:10): I thank the honourable member for the question. What I can rule in is the government's tax policies. What I can rule in is tax cuts for all Australian taxpayers.

What I can not just rule in but say has been passed is the HECS reduction. I can rule in the fact that we've frozen beer excises and I can rule in the fact that I'll continue working for lower taxes for Australians every day.
