Madam Speaker, my question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to ACOSS analysis which shows that the Prime Minister's changes to pension indexation will leave single pensioners $160 per fortnight worse off after 10 years. Prime Minister, how is a reduction of $160 per fortnight not a cut to pensions and not a broken promise?
