Senator DOWLING (Tasmania) (14:06): My question is to the Minister representing the Treasurer, Senator Gallagher, continuing the theme of her previous answer. Today, the Australian Bureau of Statistics released new consumer price index figures which showed prices were actually steady in October. Honourable senators interjecting— Senator DOWLING: Check it out—zero per cent in October. But they ticked up in annual terms. You should be interested in this. Can the minister update the Senate on the latest economic data and the progress that has been made in the fight against inflation? Senator Paterson interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Order! Senator Paterson, I've called order twice and you just completely ignored me. So disrespectful!
