I appreciate the question from Senator Paterson at five o'clock. Some three hours in, we get to dealing with the shadow finance spokesperson on matters of the economy. I do agree that Senator Paterson routinely verbals the Reserve Bank governor, and he's done that again today. As Senator Paterson knows, we've got inflation down and debt down, real wages are growing, unemployment is low and interest rates have fallen three times. There is more work to do, and this is a government that's rolling its sleeves up and doing it.
