QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Mr TIM WILSON (Goldstein) (14:16): My question is to the Treasurer. After driving government spending to the highest level in 40 years and 16 interest rate rises on his watch, the Treasurer's colleagues said: 'There's no point in the Treasurer jumping up and down saying inflation's got nothing to do with government spending. That's clearly not true.

It's like he's a used-car salesman.' Will the Treasurer finally admit his out-of-control spending is driving up inflation and interest rates?
