Those opposite believe, as I was saying, that everything was hunky-dory before May 2022. There were houses being built everywhere, there were social homes and people were getting into public housing, and rentals were apparently coming down under them. It's all nonsense, because it's all about supply. What we have done is concentrate on supply—increased building and increased supply. The increased approvals figures that came out yesterday showed that under this government you are getting an increase in supply. As we go right around the country—all the projects that are opening under the programs that we have established—over 520,000 new homes have been built under Labor. We're just getting started. There is more to do but we will deliver. (Time expired)
