My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to his comments reported in the Herald Sun today that:

It would be, I think, almost impossible to continue to live on the current age pension.

Why is the Prime Minister refusing to provide timely relief to pensioners, whom he acknowledges are struggling to survive on what they get now?
