My question is to the Prime Minister. The coalition is standing up for small businesses, farmers and consumers by ensuring stronger penalties for anticompetitive behaviour in our supermarket sector, including divestiture powers for the worst misconduct. These actions are in line with comments made earlier this year by the chair of the ACCC, Gina Cass-Gottlieb, who said that divestiture powers would be 'useful to have in the toolkit'. When will the Prime Minister show leadership and join the coalition in supporting a fairer deal for families and farmers at the check-out?
