Senator GALLAGHER (Australian Capital Territory—Minister for the Public Service, Minister for Finance, Minister for Women, Manager of Government Business in the Senate and Vice-President of the Executive Council) (14:13): What the Australian people have got with the election of an Albanese Labor government is a government that's not only directly focused on cost-of-living pressures for them but also dealing with the challenges that were ignored by those opposite for a decade. So we're dealing with issues like housing. We're dealing with energy policy. We're dealing with the net zero transformation. At the same time we're doing all of that—something that those opposite couldn't even reach agreement on themselves let alone lead a policy discussion on across the country—we're investing in the care economy, we're investing in universities and future skills and we're investing in women—remember that little problem? Remember that problem where women felt completely abandoned by the former government? We're dealing with issues like that. So, when you talk about all the spending that we shouldn't be doing, is it the investment in women's safety that we shouldn't be doing? The leaving violence payment that you only funded for two years: is it that we shouldn't be funding? Should we not be putting super on PPL? Is that an area that you wouldn't prioritise? We are building in substantial support for people, not only so that it assists them in their pockets— Senator Hume interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Senator Hume, you've asked the question. Senator GALLAGHER: but so that it sends a message about the value, in this case, of women and women's economic security and the drive for equality across the economy. So we are doing a lot of things. We're addressing long-term challenges, we're dealing with short-term cost-of-living pressures, and we're laying down the foundations for future growth. That is what the Australian people expect their government to do. It will pay benefits. The wages that we've got moving for the first time, again, in a decade—good results today are showing that wages are moving and we are seeing real wage growth. Again, that is important in terms of the support people get around the household. But we recognise there's more to be done. That's why we changed the tax cuts that you voted for, and that's why we're bringing forward energy bill relief in this budget to everyone as well. The PRESIDENT: Senator Hume, first supplementary?
