Mr President, I have a supplementary question. Minister, how did the government arrive at the lump sum figure that is roughly equivalent to $38 a week? Having finally copied our plan for a minimum $30 increase in the pension rate, will the minister now apologise to the pensioners of Australia for denying them this necessary increase until today?
