we will put forward our plan for jobs and growth, to grow our economy, backing the Australian people as we transition from the mining investment boom to a more diversified economy—an innovative economy, an agile economy, an economy that can embrace the challenging future we face. On this side, as a team, that is something we have experience with and is something we have been able to demonstrate.

On the other side we are not seeing that. We are seeing an opposition that has not learned from the mistakes it made in government, such as abolishing the Australian Building and Construction Commission and seeing, as a result of that, productivity in that sector decline and seeing the average number of days lost as a result shoot up again. Now they continue to resist that very important change that will support growth and jobs in the economy. The only thing we can conclude is that those opposite have learned absolutely nothing from their failures in government.
