We inherited Labor's child care mess just like we inherited all of their other messes. We do have a plan to fix it. I really want to emphasise that this Productivity Commission inquiry is going to do just that. We know that, for parents who cannot find child care at a price they can afford, in a location they need suited to their work, in the flexible hours that their job demands, this government has a plan. When I consider the Labor approach, what a lazy, wasteful, ignorant lot they were. We should all appreciate this Productivity Commission process and look forward to new policy approaches in the New Year.
