My question is to the Prime Minister. Peter Spillane, an elderly gentleman on a fixed income in my electorate of Herbert has contacted me about the impact of the government's cost-of-living crisis. He told me that he's having to choose between cooking his dinner and turning on his air conditioning because of the spiralling power price increases. Can the Prime Minister inform Mr Spillane when he'll receive the promised $275 cut to his power bill? Why is the Prime Minister so out of touch? Why do Australian families always pay more under Labor?
