Mr MORRISON (Cook—Treasurer) (14:33): I thank the member for Banks for his question. I acknowledge again the excellent work he has been doing as the chair of the House Standing Committee on Economics, and particularly in ensuring that the policies that the Prime Minister and I have been working on with the Minister for Revenue and Financial Services to ensure that banks are accountable in this country and the reforms we are putting in place for banks in this country will mean that Australians will be able to get a better deal at the end of the day. I thank him and his committee for their work. The government is delivering on our plan to restore the budget to balance. Once again we have seen, just like we did last year, some $22 billion of budget improvement measures that we were able to implement after the election throughout the course of the back half of last year. Again, this week we have seen an omnibus bill that was designed to ensure that we could get the growth in welfare spending under control, something that taxpayer Australians desperately want to see. Eight out of 10 taxpayers go to work every day just to pay for the welfare bill in this country through their personal income tax—eight out of 10! Our bill was designed to ensure that we are going to rein in the growth in that welfare expenditure—an important task for the government. With no help from those opposite, no help from the Labor Party, who want to see taxpayers pay higher bills for welfare in this country— Mr Burke interjecting— Mr MORRISON: On the interjection from the member opposite, I remind him I am talking about the omnibus bill which is being considered in this chamber right now. Ms Macklin interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Jagajaga! Mr MORRISON: There was $6 billion worth of savings in that bill, the omnibus bill on social services, being considered in this parliament. Those opposite refused to support it. The government, through our negotiations with the crossbenchers in the upper house, in the Senate, has been able, through those measures passed and other arrangements we have been able to agree on, to see $4 billion of that $6 billion in savings realised. That is $4 billion. We were able to do that because this government just gets on with the job, despite the opposition from the Labor Party, who work against the budget being returned to surplus every single day of their existence. They are to budget management debates what a Twitter troll is to public policy in this country. They are like the pimply teenager sitting in their basement, trolling away daily, seeking to undermine and undercut the Australian taxpayer. We have been able to deliver those savings to the budget to ensure that we can pay for more-affordable child care for Australian families. It has been two years that we have been working to achieve this result, and the Labor Party has worked against working families every day and made sure that for two years they have had to pay a higher cost for child care, because the Labor Party simply refuse to understand that when you deliver services, you have to pay for them. This government has done the work to ensure that we can deliver affordable child care. (Time expired) The SPEAKER: I call the member for Rankin. Mr Laundy: Batting up the order again, Jim? Batting at four? The SPEAKER: The member for Reid is warned.
