The supplementary went straight to the alternative policies and the policies of this government and looked historically back to 1996 and talked about facts. I would like to put on the record a single fact. In just eight years under Labor, real fees increased by 47 per cent or $60.75. In 10 years under the coalition real fees increased by 22 per cent or $41.89. If you want to talk about child care, stick to the coalition’s policies.
