  • We Were Wrong to Abandon GST Reform: Peter Hendy

    We Were Wrong to Abandon GST Reform: Peter Hendy

    We were wrong to abandon GST reform: Peter Hendy Peter Hendy says in a new book that he was wrong to oppose a GST increase. Supplied by Phillip Coorey Former Liberal MP and economist Peter Hendy says he was wrong to have opposed increasing the GST and believes the government's abandonment of tax reform early in Malcolm Turnbull's leadership "severely affected" the Prime Minister's standing in the polls. In a new book entitled Why Australia Slept, Mr Hendy says the government must again reconsider increasing the rate and base of the GST and using the proceeds to fund substantive tax reform including "large" personal income tax cuts, social welfare compensation and the abolition of inefficient state taxes such as stamp duties on conveyancing. Warning Australia risked sleepwalking towards "a very dangerous future", Mr Hendy also urged the Coalition to bite the bullet on industrial relations reform, something it has largely avoided since the political debacle of WorkChoices in 2007. Mr Hendy held the marginal NSW seat of Eden-Monaro for one term from 2013 to 2016. An economic dry, he was a principal author of John Hewson's Fightback! package which proposed a 15 per cent GST. He has also served as the chief executive officer of the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry and, after losing his seat, served as Mr Turnbull's Chief Economist in 2016 and 2017. He was a principal player in the September 2015 leadership coup against Tony Abbott. The plotters, including Mr Turnbull, gathered at his house the night before the coup was executed.
