QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator DAVEY (New South Wales—Deputy Leader of the Nationals and Deputy Leader of the Nationals in the Senate) (14:38): Senator Wong, farmers are directly impacted by Labor's cost-of-living crisis, including by higher electricity prices, which are up by 32 per cent; higher insurance and finance costs; and Labor's truckie tax, which is increasing the cost of getting the produce to market.

Why does Labor continue to pursue policies that squeeze out farmers?
