My question is to the Minister for Finance, Senator Gallaher. Today, the Australia Bureau of Statistics released the national accounts for the June quarter. These accounts provide the most comprehensive snapshot of the Australian economy at the moment, what's impacting the economy both here and abroad, and how Australians are responding to those impacts. Can the minister update the Senate on what the national accounts showed, and outline how the Albanese government is already implementing policies which will support Australians who are feeling the cost-of-living pressures the most, without making inflation worse.
