As I was listening to my reported remarks, I thought to myself that I couldn't have put that better myself! I can confirm that of course we are absolutely committed to getting this very important economic reform passed through the parliament this fortnight. That is because we care about the future opportunity for Australian families to get ahead. We care about Australian families being able to get a good job or a better job, to build a career here in Australia and to get better wages over time. We understand that the future success of families around Australia is dependent on the future viability, competitiveness and success of businesses that employ them and pay their wages.
