[by video link] My question is to the Prime Minister. Liz from Reservoir works as a software professional. She and her partner together earn $200,000 and are paying $25,000 a year out of pocket for child care. Liz says she can't go for promotions at work because she would be expected to work more hours and would lose money paying for more child care. Why is the government holding back women like Liz from taking on extra responsibility at work?
