Now those on the other side wake up! They're not concerned when their fellow Australians are facing inflationary pressure, they're not concerned when they're facing cost-of-living pressure and they're not concerned when the economy is under pressure, but they are concerned when you criticise the union movement. It's 'Come in spinner' on that side. The only people they care about are organised labour and their mates in industry super. Anyway, I will return to the ACCC annual report.

Additionally, Australia's international and domestic borders have been impacted by the pandemic, with the travel industry having to issue refunds on an unprecedented scale. I would like to pause at this point and say if there is any one sector of our economy that has been put under more pressure than any other it is the one with those people involved in helping others enjoy holidays and have again and again tried to provide overseas travel with certainty, only to see health issues intervene. They have tried to keep their businesses afloat. They have tried to keep Australians involved— (Time expired)

Report made a parliamentary paper in accordance with standing order 39(e).
