Every part of our government's response to this unprecedented shock is designed to keep our farmers farming. We're also reducing the heavy vehicle road user charge to zero for three months, and we're deferring the next scheduled increase by six months. This reduction will help keep farmers' freight moving in our regions. All these efforts are what a considered plan looks like—practical action that makes a real difference on the ground. Those opposite are really good at attacking, good at playing politics and good at trying to scare Australians, but where are their solutions? As we deal with this unprecedented shock to global energy markets, those opposite can keep trying to scare Australian farming families. The Albanese Labor government is just getting on with the job.
