The government will not be supporting this motion or the related motion, No. 383. The department recently published the dataset for 2022. The final version of the dataset for 2023 is not available yet due to IT transition issues associated with the new data collection system introduced in 2021. These issues have slowed the provision, collation and quality assurance of the data. The department is working to finalise and publish the 2023 final dataset on the department website as soon as practicable. I am advised that the department is working to make a preliminary version of this data available on the department website before the end of the year.
Question agreed to.
