I rise to also take note of the nonanswer given by the minister. Once again, Labor ministers enter the Senate chamber and refuse to be transparent with orders that the whole Senate has agreed they should comply with. The order that we're debating here is for a request for information from June. It's now mid-October. You'd think they could find the documents. In order to access the five per cent deposit scheme, you actually have to have a house. You actually have to put that on your application. The support is given to you so the government knows exactly where these people reside. The only reason they are refusing to comply with the order of the Senate is that they're embarrassed. They're absolutely embarrassed about another failed housing policy, a housing policy that has seen over 51,000 noncitizens access the scheme. We heard Minister Ayres and previous speakers stand up and talk about how they 'want more Australians to own a home'. Well, stop giving taxpayer money to non-Australians—51,000, in fact.

When we think about getting young Australians in particular into homes, we want to make sure that those that are earning the median income in this country can help get them into their first home. But what does Labor do? They're supporting the fat cats. If you earn $600,000, you can access this scheme—taxpayer support competing against tradies and hairdressers trying to get into their first home. So it is no wonder the Labor Party is ashamed to come in and actually put on the public record the failure of this housing policy. They should hang their heads in shame.

I'll tell you what—they've been hanging their heads in shame all week. We've got the Treasurer and the PM at war with each other. Poor Chalmers! The PM just keeps driving that bus over him, reversing back over—
