I'm simply making the point to you, Senator Cameron, that when you make the economy more prosperous, as this government has done as a direct result of its policies, when you create more jobs, as this government has done as a result of its policies, when jobs growth is stronger now than it has been at any time since the GFC almost a decade ago, directly as a result of the government's policies, and when you put more young people in particular into work, into good jobs, into full-time jobs, at better wages, which has happened as a result of this government's policies, then those young people have a greater opportunity to get into the housing market, as they are doing. Nevertheless, Senator Cameron, since you asked me more particularly, let me give you the details of some of the other measures, apart from growing the health of the economy, that the government has also taken to address the issue of housing affordability.
