The transcript of Ken Henry's grilling at the economics committee will be here in a day or two and will make great reading.
One highlight was Senator Bill Heffernan. He asks straightforward questions.
Hef: Has Australia ever been where we are going?
Henry: Excuse me Senator.
Hef: The position that we are in and the globe is in. Have we ever had to design what we are now designing before?
Henry: No. No Senator, these circumstances are quite unprecedented. I don't think there would be policy advisor or policy maker alive today who had confronted circumstances such as these.
