What the government is doing is making sure that we're providing cost-of-living relief where we can, where it's affordable and responsible to do so. We've got wages moving again to provide support for household incomes so that they get the appropriate wage increases that they were denied under 10 years of wage stagnation, a deliberate design feature of the former government.

In relation to the production tax credits that you raised in the second half of your question, it's interesting but not surprising to see that the opposition, who say no to everything, are still in denial about the transition that's happening around us, the net zero transition that's happening globally. You still haven't reconciled that, and you are now saying no to future economic prosperity for this country. That's what you're saying when you're dressing it up like that. We don't agree. It's obviously a fundamental difference. You want to vote against a future made in Australia. We want to support and build a future made in Australia.
