For clarity, there are probably two questions there. The first question is: what percentage of households in Australia who rent will benefit from this rent assistance increase? That's of all renters, and I would expect the department to have figures on the percentage of people who rent. Then I'm happy to add a second question, which is: of the people who currently receive Commonwealth rent assistance, what percentage will receive this increase?
