My question is to the Assistant Minister for Education. Before the election, the government promised to help families with cost-of-living pressures. The minister's own department has confirmed that, if the government get their way, half a million low- and middle-income Australian families will have hundreds of millions of dollars in childcare benefits cut from 1 July this year. No matter what deal the government cobbles together in the next few days, isn't it true that Australians will be worse off because of this government's cuts?
