Senator Roberts, I refer you to my previous answer, and I note that you made comments about the cost of living under this government. Again, when we came into office in May 2022, inflation as measured by the CPI had a six in front of it, and today the CPI rate over the 12 months to June 2025 was just 2.1 per cent, which is really welcome news for Australians.
