Tan Bao government is facing an open disagreement over the direction of the economy, backbench lawmakers have disputed a A $35.6 billion corporate tax cut since the tragic defeat in the by-election over the weekend. One Unionparty congressman even publicly called on the government to abandon the policy in a matter of weeks.
Comprehensive Times, the Australian Financial Review reported July 30 that critics of tax cuts for big businesses are lobbying the government for major reforms to abandon the corporate tax cuts before parliament restarts on August 13. They argue for swift reform of the policy on the grounds that if future results do not prevent a massive shift in policy, they would prefer Prime Minister Tan Po`s initiative to announce the direction of the change economy rather than reform in response to the Senate decision.
The discussion of the policy comes at a time when Mr Tan`s office is preparing for its next general election campaign. It is reported that he has appointed top adviser Masison (Clive Mathieson) as his chief of staff.
Unionparty backseat Congressman Howers (Luke Howarth) expressed concern within the government about the corporate tax cuts and publicly called for government to "abandon the plan and move forward" once the Senate again vetoed the final phase of the corporate tax cuts.
Howers` remarks will undoubtedly affect other Unionparty colleagues because his constituency is adjacent to the Longman seat that was held at the weekend`s by-election.
Although the government was meant to ensure that all the rest of the corporate tax cuts were passed by parliament, federal financial minister Koman (Mathias Cormann) said he could still win the support of the "single National Party". But some in the cabinet also argue that the government should accept the Senate plan to shelve the rest of the bill. This includes ensuring that businesses with annual turnover of less than 500 million yuan receive tax breaks, with the exception of large banks, large retailers, and so on.
