How fair is Labor's parent visa fee?

We asked the Shadow Immigration Minister Shayne Neumann the basis for setting the parent visa fee at $2,500 and $1,250 in Labor's Temporary Sponsored Parent Visa policy. When normal visitor visas are available for as little as $140, did Labor set the fee just because the government's visa fee is thought to be very high, or whether it has been logically calculated? While Labor is promising to change the temporary sponsored parent visa significantly, claiming it would make it easier for parents of migrants to come to Australia, the party is retaining the requirements set by the coalition for people wanting to sponsor their parents for this visa.
