Goods and Services Tax

In reply to Mr MULLIGHAN (Lee) (5 June 2018).

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier): I have been advised that:

The South Australian Liberal Government's position on the distribution of GST revenue is clear. We will not support any changes that disadvantage South Australia.

Rather than writing to the Federal Treasurer, the South Australian Treasurer has met one on one with his federal counterpart and firmly made the point that the government will not be supporting any change to GST funding arrangements which disadvantages the interests of South Australia and South Australians.

It does not matter if it is a federal Liberal government or a federal Labor government, both the Treasurer and I will be fighting for the interests of South Australia.
