HENRY BELOT:
It’s time for our political panel, and joining us today is the Assistant Minister for Trade, Tim Ayres and we also have the Shadow Minister for Early Childhood Education, Angie Bell. Welcome both of you to Capital Hill.
Ms BELL: I second the motion, and I outline that Australian small and family businesses are simply not aware of the impacts of this bill. Why is that? Well, because this Labor government has not spoken to one small business about its impacts, particularly about industry-wide or patenting bargaining, as it was known during the […]

Last week I attended the official launch of the Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Avenue and Woodland Walk at the beautiful Gold Coast Regional Botanic Gardens. I visited several times this year, and last time I was honoured to plant the inaugural tree for the woodland walk. I’m proud to say that, even though local […]

SALLY ROPE:
Angie Bell is our Federal Member for Moncrieff here, Shadow Minister for Early Childhood Education and Shadow Minister for Youth. Each week around this time we catch up with one of our federal MPs, this morning it is Ms Bell. Hello.
Governments do not create jobs; business and employers do. This is a message for those opposite. This bill delivers the worst possible news that Australian small and medium enterprises could get, on top of the mess this government is making with the Australian economy. Thanks to this government, power prices are not being cut by […]
I’m so pleased to rise in the Federation Chamber today to speak about my electorate of Moncrieff, which I love deeply, and youths—the future of our great country. Last month I asked members from the Moncrieff Community Cabinet to nominate a youth representative aged between 15 and 24 to attend the Moncrieff youth roundtable in […]
It’s been nine long years since Labor delivered a budget, and it’s clear they still don’t know what they are doing. The government’s $4.5 billion childcare package will not deliver for families, workers or the sector. They have no plan for access, no plan for workers and no plan to address thin markets and childcare […]
Treasury have today confirmed that the Albanese Government’s ‘Cheaper Child Care’ policy is based on a lack of modelling and incorrect assumptions. In a Senate Inquiry into the policy, Treasury confirmed the only modelling they’ve done is the impact the policy will have on mothers with children aged 0-5 years.
