[by video link] My question is to the Treasurer. In 30 years per capita net national income has risen by only 130 per cent, and yet housing and motor vehicle prices have risen by over 600 per cent and food by over 230 per cent. Affordable living is now beyond many Australians. Wouldn't the deregulation of the building codes and land subdivisions, along with capping down to 100 per cent the current unconscionable farm-gate-to-family mark-up of 300 per cent on food stop 30 per cent of our families collapsing into poverty?
