The government does not support this motion. Everything we do as a government is designed to deliver greater opportunities for young Australians. Every minister is focused on what they can do for young people. As detailed in the administrative arrangements, Minister Birmingham is the minister responsible for youth affairs as well as for education and training. Minister Cash, as the Minister for Employment, is focused squarely on addressing youth unemployment, including through the establishment of our Youth Jobs PaTH Program. With all ministers working for young people wherever possible, we believe we can deliver the best outcomes for young Australians.
