My question is to the Treasurer. Since 2022 Labor has spent more than $400 billion in higher revenue from inflation and resource profits that could be paying down debt. Every minute, Australians pay more than $52,000 in interest on Labor's trillion-dollar debt. Only the coalition has a plan to fix the economy and protect our way of life. Why won't the government support the future generations fund, where 80c in every dollar of windfall resource revenue would pay down the debt and build our future?
