804. Ms R. SAFFIOTI to the
Minister for Finance:
I have a supplementary question. Given that the minister had
a chance to correct his incorrect claim about asset investment, does he correct
his claim that this is a fantastic result and a fantastic set of numbers?

As I said before, the government is absolutely ecstatic that
it has brought expense growth down to 2.2 per cent. I take my hat off to the
Treasurer. He would be disappointed that he is not here to take the glory. He
has done a magnificent job to bring expenditure down, which is very hard to do.
He has brought expenditure growth down to 2.2 per cent. It has taken 20 years
to get it down to that level.
