Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Will the minister table the modelling that he has just talked about. Given that the modelling of the impact on jobs across regional Australia clearly appears to be inadequate and given the important contribution of the resources sector in keeping Australia out of recession and in creating new jobs, how can the government go ahead with such a reckless tax grab without properly assessing its impact on jobs, in particular across regional areas?
