Mr MORRISON (Cook—Prime Minister and Minister for the Public Service) (14:18): Because child care is so important is the reason the government made the changes to child care. As a result of those changes the out-of-pocket expenses for child care have fallen by just over three per cent. Prior to that, they were rising, that is true—and under those opposite they increased by 50 per cent when their reforms only saw childcare costs go through the roof. We had the Productivity Commission report. We listened to that Productivity Commission report. We crafted changes to the childcare system which not only saw the out-of-pocket expenses for child care, compared to before the reforms, come down, but, in addition, saw workforce participation increase. In particular, it saw female workforce participation increase to record levels, and it saw the gender pay gap fall to new lows. On top of that, we know that there are many, many—of course there are; women are incredibly entrepreneurial. All family makers are entrepreneurial. We have a government that has a minister for family business— Ms Rishworth interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Kingston has asked her question. Mr MORRISON: because we understand that, when you're running a family business, it requires all of the family's involvement, and the sacrifices that families make as part of those small family businesses are significant. Many of the members who sit on this side of the chamber, and in the other place, have grown up in family businesses. It's important that family businesses get that support, and that's why we made the changes that we did. But, as is always the case, in the supports that we provide, we make sure that they're targeted and we make sure that they're means tested and that those who need it the most get the most support, and that's what our changes did.
