Senator Abetz interjects that it is not true. The only tax policy we have from the opposition is to increase company tax by 1.7 per cent. That is the only tax policy they have. A lower company tax rate will reinforce Australia as a good place to do business. It will be of substantial benefit to the economy, it will help attract investment and it will add to jobs. The benefits from increased investment are many. They include business expansion, improved productivity, higher wages and investment. (Time expired)
