QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator CANAVAN (Queensland—Leader of the Nationals) (14:52): Recently I met with Dimitri, a financial planner, and Nathan, a real estate agent, both from Rockhampton, who have seen firsthand the knock to economic confidence on their business of Labor's taxes. Has the government done any assessment of the impact on the lending slowdown for people like Dimitri and Nathan and for others in real estate, mortgage broking and small businesses in this sector, and will the minister release this analysis?
