Business leaders have criticised the Australian Labor Party’s handling of the issue of corporate tax during the 2016 federal election campaign. Minerals Council of Australia CEO Brendan Pearson has described Labor’s approach to the issue as "disappointing", while Queensland’s former Labor treasurer Keith DeLacy has accused federal Labor’s tax policy of being "anti-business". Meanwhile, former ANZ Bank chairman John Morschel has expressed concern that Labor’s election policies would result in a big increase in government spending.
