My question is to the Prime Minister. Under the Prime Minister's industrial relations changes, a part-time car parking attendant working only three days a week, including Saturdays and Sundays, could lose more than $13,000 a year from their take-home pay. Why is the Prime Minister punishing workers who are struggling to find and keep secure jobs during a pandemic?

The premise of the question, again, is wrong. That figure is totally untrue. There is no evidence whatsoever, and, if the member has such evidence, then he can explain it to the House.
