My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Social Services, Senator Farrell. The Albanese government recognises that many people in Australia are facing cost-of-living pressures right now. Can the minister please outline how the passage of the Social Services and Other Legislation Amendment (Strengthening the Safety Net) Bill in the Senate yesterday is helping to deliver on the Albanese government's $14.6 billion cost-of-living package to give some relief to Australians on some of the lowest incomes?
