G'day Bill,

Replying to a message of Bill Grimsley to Frank Malcolm:

 BG> Needless to say, that extra $120m per annum has not been seen since,
 BG> or at least not by the minister for education.  Just like your 3x3
 BG> tax (which is actually something like a 7x9 tax now), it'll never be
 BG> lifted or reduced.

The tax is still only 4x4 but the legislation has been amended (they just
renewed it), to allow the money to be spent on things other than roads.
This action took one government longer than I thought it would. I expect
the tax to be fully absorbed into general revenue within two governments.

Regards...Jeff (jeff{at}grntrs.dialix.oz.au)
