(—) (): The ability for the government to respond in the way that it has with the $320 billion support measures really has reminded Australians of the importance of a strong and stable financial position. The path to recovery is by growing the economy—as the Prime Minister and the Minister for Finance himself have said—through productivity enhancing reforms and, of course, supporting small and family businesses. The focus of our recovery will be on practical solutions, including reskilling and upskilling the workforce, maintaining our $100 billion ten-year infrastructure pipeline. Infrastructure does create jobs. But there is the important cutting of red tape, to reduce the cost burden on businesses and on the economy. There is a long road ahead. No doubt there will be further challenges, but we are prepared to face them. (Time expired)
