My question is to the Prime Minister. Mark, from Carrum Downs, is 56 years old. He recently lost his job. He says his job provided nearly half of his family's income and that they have exhausted their savings. Mark is cut out of the hiring credit because of his age, and he won't be eligible for mature worker subsidies until next year. Why is the Prime Minister leaving people like Mark behind?
