We on this side understand the pressure that Australians are under, which is why we are focused on delivering real cost-of-living relief and why we have advocated for increases in the national minimum wage, which has increased by more than $12,000 a year. That is more than a 30 per cent increase. This is why we have delivered pay rises for early educators and workers in aged care. But there is more to do. We know that there is more to do.
