Senator FARRELL (South Australia—Minister for Trade and Tourism, Special Minister of State and Deputy Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:11): You've nailed it there, Senator Payman, and the reaction of those opposite gives us the clue that it's because the government is providing additional support to recipients of Commonwealth rent assistance with the largest increase in over 30 years. Maximum rates are increasing by 15 per cent plus indexation. This is one way that the Albanese government is addressing housing pressures after a decade of neglect under the former Liberal and National government. It is part of our comprehensive package of housing measures, which sees us working with housing ministers right across the country, in contrast to the former government, of course. I call on everyone in this place to work with the government in a constructive manner to support our housing agenda. (Time expired.)
