My question is to the Minister representing the Treasurer, Senator Gallagher. Australia's economic growth is built on migration. This reliance on migrants, both skilled and unskilled, is not a coincidence. It is the backbone of our community and our economy, yet we still hear the tiresome base-level arguments. They are not taking jobs. They are filling gaps, creating new markets and sustaining our entire service economy. Can the government please outline what economic benefits migrants bring to Australia?
