Thank you, President. I'm happy to take the exact details of that question on notice for Senator Hughes. And I'm happy that she is showing an interest in this issue, because I don't remember any opposition senator ever doing anything to support child care in the way that the Labor government is doing. What I do remember is the now opposition copying the policy of Labor, then opposition, when it came to child care, but not delivering that policy in full, and for that reason, that policy—what was then your policy—left a lot of Australian families much more out of pocket than ours will. That's what I remember.
