Senator GALLAGHER (Australian Capital Territory—Minister for Finance, Minister for the Public Service, Minister for Women, Minister for Government Services and Manager of Government Business in the Senate) (15:06): The opposition have never not liked an approach to talk down our economy. At any opportunity they get, nothing gives them greater pleasure than to stand up and try to start a scare campaign. That's what they love. That's what they live for. When they're not killing themselves running to give an interview up in the press gallery to do over the person that sits next to them in question time, when they're not doing that, they're starting a scare campaign. What I would say is to Senator Paterson is inflation is down, debt is down, wages are growing, unemployment is low and interest rates have been cut three times. There is more work to do, and this government is doing it. Senator Wong: I ask that further questions be placed on the Notice Paper.
