My question is to the minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Brandis. I refer to the Australian Bureau of Statistics data released last week which shows that wages growth has fallen to 1.9 per cent, the lowest rate of wage growth since the ABS started publishing the Wage Price Index in 1998. Why are Australian average wage earners the losers under Mr Turnbull?
