Compare how Bruce Scott and Sarah Henderson voted on stopping tax avoidance or aggressive tax minimisation
Bruce Scott
Former Deputy Speaker Representative for Maranoa October 2012 – May 2016
Sarah Henderson
Liberal Party Senator for Victoria since September 2019
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should make it harder for individuals and corporations to avoid or aggressively minimise their Australian tax obligations and take part in international efforts to keep track of these individuals and corporations by sharing income and asset information
Now this is where it gets a bit tricky… Two people might vote the same way on votes they both attended, so their votes are 100% in agreement. They might also have voted in a way we’d describe differently when looking at all of one person's votes. If the other person didn’t or couldn’t have attended those votes we leave those out of the comparison. Because that just wouldn’t be fair now, would it?
