Federal Treasurer Scott Morrison has told a meeting of Coalition MPs of the need to reduce income taxes over the long-term, stressing that this must be achieved via spending cuts in the Budget. Meanwhile, backbenchers expressed concern about proposed changes to the negative gearing regime for property investors, with one MP warning that any such reforms will be rejected by the party room. Morrison also said Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull is fully prepared to seek a double-dissolution election.
