Victorian Treasurer Tim Pallas has taken a swipe at Western Australia over its bid to garner more GST revenue at the expense of other states.
"The GST fund is not ballast for the federal government to provide for an isolated one-off situation," he told ABC Television of WA demands to adjust the distribution formula to take account of falling iron-ore prices.
"If they've got a problem they need to work that out with the federal government."
