The Australian Government is facing renewed calls to increase the GST, but hand taxpayers a hefty rebate set to shield low-income earners.
The new proposal, put forward by teal independent MP Kate Chaney and economist Richard Holden, would raise the GST from 10 percent to 15 percent.
Australian correspondent Murray Olds says this change would leave Australia's lowest earners better off than under the current system.
