My question is to the Minister for Finance and Deregulation, Senator Wong. Given that the budget bottom line has deteriorated over the forward estimates, with next year’s deficit to be $1.9 billion higher, putting further pressure on inflation and the cost of living for homeowners and renters, when will the government concede that it has failed to deliver on its promise to relieve these cost-of-living pressures for genuine Australian families?
