Cabinet secretary Arthur Sinodinos says the Coalition has a mandate for its Budget measures after winning the 2016 federal election. He has also downplayed the impact that proposed superannuation reforms had on the election result. The super reforms are likely to be a key issue on the agenda for a party-room meeting on 18 July, with the $A500,000 lifetime cap on contributions likely to come under particular scrutiny. There is also growing acceptance within the Coalition that its 10-year policy to reduce the company tax rate will not pass the Senate in its entirety.
