My question is to the Prime Minister. How many Australian families are currently on electricity hardship plans?

Every single household will get $300 of energy bill relief from today. They won't just get that; every single Australian who is a taxpayer will get income tax relief—tax cuts that those opposite opposed.

Order! The Prime Minister will pause, and I'll hear from the Leader of the Opposition.

On relevance: to be fair to the Prime Minister, it's not every Australian, but it is 127,000 families who are facing hardship at the moment.

The Leader of the Opposition will resume his seat. The Prime Minister has been asked a question. The Leader of the Opposition took the point of order. The Prime Minister has the call.

Every single person that the Leader of the Opposition just named will get energy price relief—energy relief that those opposite voted against, like they voted against relief last year, which we introduced in partnership with every state and territory government. Those opposite have opposed every bit of support that we have provided in cost-of-living relief. They opposed cheaper medicines. They opposed energy price relief. They opposed wage increases. They opposed our income tax cuts for every taxpayer. Whatever the issue is they say no to it. And then they have the hide to come in here and say they care about the cost of living. They don't care about costs of living. If they did, they would vote for cost-of-living support. But they have opposed every single measure. We expect that that's the case because, while we are supporting Australians, they're cheering against them.
