There is little support in blue-ribbon Coalition electorates for using any extra revenue raised from a 15 per cent GST to cut company taxes, new polling shows.

Reducing company tax rates was by far the least popular option when voters in four coalition-held electorates were asked to choose between four alternative ways to use extra revenue if the GST rate is lifted to 15 per cent. Only 2.5 per cent to 4.5 per cent opted to use the money to cut company taxes.

The most popular way to use additional GST revenue was boosting health, education and other government services. Other options more popular than cutting company tax rates was reducing Australia's debt and compensating low-income households. The electorates surveyed were New England, Page and Warringah in NSW along with the seat of Dickson in Queensland.

A tax reform plan announced by NSW Premier Mike Baird on Monday proposed increasing the rate of the GST to 15 per cent and using about a quarter of the proceeds to cut the company tax rate to 25 per cent from 30 per cent. Business groups are also pushing for a reduction in corporate taxes, saying it will boost economic growth.
