Ms PLIBERSEK (Sydney—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:47): My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to Dell Stagg, a full-time carer for her daughter, in the electorate of Boothby. Because of the government's budget changes, Dell says her family will be up to $600 per fortnight worse off. Dell writes, 'Not only am I already doing the heavy lifting because of my caring role for my daughter, I'm buggered if I'm leaning on anyone. I also have cancer now.' Why is the Prime Minister making life even harder for carers like Dell by cutting the indexation of the carer payment and disability support pension?
