Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I note that the minister did not tell us the number of people that had been thrown out of work and so I ask: is the government’s inability to tell us the number of job losses indicative of Labor’s callous disregard for the human tragedy that is flowing from Labor’s deliberate slowing of the economy, which is turning many working families into hurting families?
