QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator STEWART (Victoria) (14:06): My question is to Minister Wong. The Albanese Labor government has been delivering on a responsible budget that is focused on delivering real cost-of-living help for Australians, giving every taxpayer another tax cut and supporting another meaningful boost to wages. That's on top of expanding paid parental leave to a full six months, banning supermarket price gouging and making urgent care clinics a permanent part of Medicare.

Could the minister outline the impact that Labor's reforms will have and why the measures this government has taken will be so important to millions of Australians?
