I'm answering the question you asked around the advice that the Treasury provides. I told you that the government has sought advice and support from our departments around cost-of-living relief. That's what you've seen flow through our budgets. And it's what you've voted against time after time, so no wonder your question didn't have 'cost of living' in it—because you have voted against the cost-of-living measures when they have come here. We will work with departments to ensure that we can provide cost-of-living relief where we can and where we can responsibly afford to do so.
