I thank the fantastic member for Pearce for that question and for her concern about making sure that young people in Pearce get the skills they need and that older workers retraining for new jobs of the future get the skills that they need. Indeed, taking action on the cost of living is our No. 1 priority, because we want people to earn more and we want people to keep more of what they earn. That means we need to help more Australians get the skills they need to get a good, secure job, which is exactly what our fee-free TAFE policy does. It identifies areas of skills shortage and says you can enrol for free.
