My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Families, Housing, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs, Senator Evans. Minister, what would be the current rate of the single age pension had the Howard government continued Labor’s policy of linking the pension to the CPI only and not changed to the higher of the CPI or 25 per cent of male total average weekly earnings?
