My question is for the Minister representing the Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Senator Ayres. Global energy markets have been disrupted by the war in the Middle East. The export of oil and gas through the Strait of Hormuz has largely stopped. Iran has attacked energy infrastructure across the region, and energy producers are shutting down production. Can the minister please provide an update on energy and supply chain pressures. Can the minister also outline the Albanese Labor government's actions thus far to protect the Australian economy and Australian households.
