Ms SHARKIE (Mayo) (15:13): My question is to the Treasurer. For every litre of fuel sold in Australia, the government receives 52.6c in excise tax. We are in a cost-of-living emergency, and we must act now.
Diesel has increased by over 55 per cent in the last month. This is devastating for regional communities like Mayo. Will the government suspend the fuel excise for 60 days to provide immediate relief for Australians.
