The honourable member opposite knows full well that we are seeking to pay for the NDIS, which the Labor Party did not fund and which needs the guaranteed financial security Labor would not provide it with. We are seeking to do so in precisely the same way that the Labor government did in part when they were in power.
But the honourable member asked me about big corporations and inequality. Well, most people, when they go snorkelling on the Barrier Reef, pay for it themselves, but not the Leader of the Opposition. Oh, no! We heard the indignation about Point Piper, the suburb I lived in. He's down on those millionaires in Point Piper, but he wasn't above taking thousands of dollars from the Australian Conservation Foundation. Geoff Cousins reported on the trip that they funded for the Leader of the Opposition, which was only disclosed after Mr Cousins came out with his report. It was amazing!
Now, what was the name of that other donor to the Leader of the Opposition? Unibilt? Was that a donor that only came out after the event? Well, there's a bit of a pattern there!
