My question is to the Treasurer. What does the Treasurer have to say to the one in three hospitality workers who've lost their jobs, the one in four workers in the arts and entertainment industries who've lost their jobs, the up to 11,000 casual workers in who can't access JobKeeper, the 21,000 university workers who are likely to lose their jobs over the coming months and the thousands of workers at dnata whose jobs are at risk and who are now facing the unemployment queue because the government won't extend the JobKeeper wage subsidy to more workers?
