I've answered that as best I can by saying that that comes down to the choices of individual Australians in terms of where they want to spend their money. The government does not have some sort of process whereby we prescribe where people can spend their own money. What we're saying is that we are making a decision as a parliament to leave people with more of their own money. They can spend it on their priorities—on their individual priorities, on the priorities of their families—or however they want to spend it.
