Treasurer Scott Morrison has ruled out seeking a deal with crossbench senator Derryn Hinch to secure passage of its corporate tax package. Hinch has indicated that he may be open to supporting tax cuts for companies with turnover of up to $A500m, but Morrison has stressed that the Federal Government will persist with its policy of progressively reducing the tax rate for all companies. Meanwhile, Morrison says the May 2018 Budget will be "responsible", and he has rejected suggestions by National Party leader Michael McCormack that it will include some "goodies" for taxpayers.
