My question is to the minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Birmingham: The RBA Governor, Dr Lowe, told the National Press Club, 'When the JobKeeper program finishes at the end of March, we expect some additional job losses.' The Secretary of the Treasury also conceded last week that there will be job losses when JobKeeper is axed. How many Australians will lose their jobs when the government axes JobKeeper in 38 days?
