Minister for Immigration and Citizenship Dan Tehan said the government needs to put"downwards pressure" on interest rates during an interview with Sky News Australia host Peter Stefanovic on First Edition on Monday. Picture: NCA NewsWire / Martin Ollman.Stefanovic asked Mr Tehan whether the government's current policies were working, considering mortgage owners were facing another"supersized" rate hike in coming months.

The inflation rate is currently 7.8 per cent, with household inflation rising to 1.9 per cent in the last quarter, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
