My question is to the Prime Minister. Tracy, who works in an Aboriginal cooperative, told the royal commission that she was conned into paying more than $10,000 in funeral insurance premiums for a policy that was only worth $8,000, and the dodgy company that sold Tracy this insurance used misleading marketing to trick her into believing that it was backed by the Aboriginal community. Why won't the Prime Minister schedule extra sitting weeks before the election so this parliament can stop dodgy insurers ripping off Australians?
