My question is to the Treasurer. I support the capital gains tax reform for housing, but my community and I are concerned about its impact on the startup sector, which contributes significantly to productivity. The reforms announced could undermine investment in innovative, high-risk, early-stage businesses. I acknowledge your commitment to consult with stakeholders on this issue. Could you outline the consultation process and whether the government is considering a carve-out for early-stage businesses?
