I thank Senator Wortley for her question. Despite the opportunistic politics being practised by those opposite, the job of the economic stimulus in the Australian economy has been critical and is far from finished. The government’s stimulus packages were carefully designed to provide appropriate, staged support to the economy while providing a plan for the renewal of Australia’s long-neglected infrastructure. Economic stimulus has been absolutely critical to the strong economic performance of Australia, compared to the other major advanced economies, in the face of the worst global recession in 75 years.
