Brendan Coates, director of the Grattan Institute's economic policy program, also said tax-to-GDP was affected by factors generally outside the control of the federal government.
"We saw this during the later years of the Howard government during the mining boom where the total federal tax take, as a share of the economy, really spiked due to a surge in corporate profits from high commodity prices," he said.
John Freebairn, a professor of economics at the University of Melbourne, added that the introduction of the GST meant data from before and after July 2000 was not strictly comparable.
