I thank Senator Green for her second supplementary question. Help to Buy will bring homeownership back within the reach of more Australians, many of whom are renting right now and waiting for that opportunity. But there are obstacles, and they are sitting right over there. Those opposite talk a big game, but then they come in here and they vote against more homes. The Liberals and the Greens teamed up to delay the $10 billion Housing Australia Future Fund by six months. Every time the Liberals vote against delivering homeownership help or building new homes and every time the Greens delay these reforms, they are voting against Australians who need them.
