The Turnbull government won't revisit increasing the GST in the next term of parliament.
The prime minister agreed with a now famous phrase on Friday, saying a rise to 15 per cent is "dead" and wouldn't be pursued without an election mandate.
"It is not something we would contemplate in the next term of government," Mr Turnbull told radio FIVEaa during a visit to Adelaide on Friday.
