McKENZIE (—) (): The former Treasurer disagrees. When asked about airline competition at the National Press Club on 29 August 2023 the assistant minister for competition, Dr Leigh, said: 'I look to Europe with its range of low-cost carriers and see what looks like an even more competitive ecosystem. So moving us towards that I think is a long-term goal.' Minister, who is correct? Is the Prime Minister right when he says that Australia has the most competitive market in the world or is the competition assistant minister correct?
