Sally McManus responds to RBA governor's commentary on housing market

Sally McManus spoke to ABC News Breakfast this morning and gave her thoughts on some of RBA governor Phil Lowe's commentary around the housing market and what he thinks needs to happen.

I think we're living in two worlds. We've got people living in very big houses that have multiple dwellings and they're landlords. And what they're doing is when the Reserve Bank governor puts up interest rates, they're passing on that cost to renters and that's part of the reason why we're seeing rents increase.

And I think that that is just basically saying to everyone, look, ordinary people, move in with your parents and grandparents whilst we're going to say nothing about those CEOs I talked about at companies that actually are the ones that could ease cost of living tomorrow on people but they're choosing not to because in the end they want to see their bonuses.
