My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations, Senator Watt. Earlier this month, the Fair Work Commission handed down the 2026 annual wage review decision recommending a real wage increase for award and minimum wage workers. Minister, how will this decision provide cost-of-living relief for almost 2.7 million Australian workers across this country?
