My question is to the Prime Minister. During the pandemic national cabinet discussed rents and rents were frozen in parts of the country. Research today shows almost two-thirds of renters, about two million households, are in financial stress and that financial pressures are greater today than during COVID or the GFC. You've said that national cabinet will be discussing renters' rights, so will Labor at the same time organise a national rent freeze and caps on increases, or does Labor think there should be no limit on high rents can go?
