House of RepresentativesTuesday 18 August 2026

QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Ms BELL (Moncrieff) (14:26): My question is to the Minister for Housing. Yesterday, the minister said she was 'damn proud' of Labor's broken promises on capital gains tax and negative gearing. Is the minister damn proud of making millions of Australians pay more for rent?

Ms Bell interjecting— A government member interjecting— The SPEAKER: Order. Before the minister starts, the House is going to come to order. The member for Moncrieff was heard in silence when she asked her question.

She started interjecting straightaway when she sat down, responding to ministers—I don't know who did it. Whoever's interjecting on this side—there's no point in pointing. I didn't hear; otherwise I would have warned that person as well.

If everyone can just cool it, we'll hear from the minister.
