Senator POLLEY (Tasmania) (14:27): Thank you, Minister. You and the Treasurer are working hard to finalise the upcoming May budget, so we thank you for your hard work. I understand that it will be a budget that balances the fight against inflation— Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Order! Senator Polley, resume your seat. Order across the chamber. Order! Order! Interjections across the chamber are disorderly. Senator Polley, the last I heard was 'budget'. Would you like to repeat from there, thank you. Senator POLLEY: I understand it will be a budget that balances the fight against inflation with a need to gear our economy for growth. Why is it crucial that we make the necessary investments and drive growth in the economy and create more jobs for Australians, unlike those opposite?
