Federal Finance Minister Mathias Cormann has signalled that the goods and services tax (GST) might be raised to pay for income tax cuts. He said on 30 August 2015 that a tax reform package would be part of an election program to be developed before the next election. New South Wales Premier Mike Baird welcomed Cormann’s comments and agreed about the need to discuss the GST.
