Mr ABBOTT (Warringah—Prime Minister) (15:01): The Leader of the Opposition should tell the truth to the Australian people— Mr Dreyfus: From you! Mr ABBOTT: and the truth is that pensions will go up every six months. The SPEAKER: The member for Isaacs has been warned, I would remind him. Mr ABBOTT: Pensions will go up every six months. The only difference is that, from 2017, pensions will go up by the same indexation method that the shadow minister for social services applied to family tax benefit. That is the truth, and the Leader of the Opposition should stop scaring the pensioners of Australia. As for this Paid Parental Leave scheme, which the Leader of the Opposition is a little obsessed with—and I do not know why he is so frightened of letting the women in the workplaces of Australia get a fair deal at last. I mean, why are the Leader of the Opposition and the Deputy Leader of the Opposition so against the women in the workplaces of Australia getting a fair deal at last? Mr Hockey: She got it! Mr ABBOTT: That is right. When the public servants who used to work with her as a minister took paid parental leave, they got their paid parental leave at full pay. What was wrong with that for them? If they got paid at their full pay, why shouldn't the women working for supermarkets and factories and small businesses right around our country? Why shouldn't they get the same deal that has long been given to the public servants of Australia? Mr Snowdon: They won't get $50,000 a year. The SPEAKER: The member for Lingiari will desist. Mr ABBOTT: Let us scotch this myth that somehow paid parental leave is going to benefit wealthy women. Ninety-eight per cent of the women in the workforce of this country earn less than $100,000, and they deserve a fair go, and they will get a fair go under this government.
