This is in continuation from earlier. Regional communities are feeling it first and worse. This is not an abstract policy debate. This is about whether people can afford to live their lives.

The coalition's position is clear. We will support this bill because securing supply matters, but we will also continue to call on the government to do more—to act with urgency, to back Australian production and to deliver immediate cost-of-living relief, because restoring fuel security is not just about imports and financing; it's about protecting living standards, it's about supporting small businesses and it is about making sure Australian families can get ahead, not fall behind. Australians deserve a government that is prepared, responsive and focused on their needs. Right now they are looking for leadership, and they need action.
