The Prime Minister has only just begun his answer.

Honourable members interjecting—

I would like to address this without interjection from either side. It was a question that I considered not allowing, given that no minister would carry every single detail with them. But I allowed the question for the Prime Minister to address it.

Honourable members interjecting—

You will cease interjecting.

Mr Brendan O'Connor interjecting—

The member for Gorton will leave under 94(a). He has been warned three times. You have decided to eject yourself.

The member for Gorton then left the chamber.

The Prime Minister will come back to the answer and address the question.
