Labor will not be supporting this motion. We have moved our own, which calls on the government to permanently increase the rate of JobSeeker payment and not to go back to the precoronavirus rate, which was simply too low. But it is important to note that this proposal would mean people on JobSeeker payment would receive a higher base payment than people on the aged pension, DSP and carer payment.

Question negatived.
