Constituents in Fowler have also benefited from cheaper medicines. More than a billion dollars has been saved. Of course, for an electorate with a lower-than-average socioeconomic outcome, our cost-of-living measures have been unapologetically aimed at particularly assisting low- and middle-income earners. There aren't too many billionaires living in Fowler, and we have ensured that everyone has had a tax cut. People are benefiting from cheaper medicines. Many of her constituents are benefiting from free TAFE. The urgent care clinics are reducing the cost of health care. The crackdown on supermarkets is making a difference on inflation as well. Indeed, when it comes to energy, of course, I'm sure the member for Fowler supported our $300 rebates that are making a difference. That's $75, $75, $75 and $75 that's clicking onto those bills, reducing the cost of the bills that people have to pay. We're also reducing the bills of small businesses in the member for Fowler's electorate. (Time expired)
