My question is to the Treasurer. I refer the Treasurer to a Mitsubishi franchise and RACV service depot, Graham Nelson Motors in Rochester in my electorate of Murray—a small car dealer business that was and continues to have great difficulty accessing credit. I refer the Treasurer to my letter to his office on 31 March—some three months ago—in which I urgently sought his intervention, asking for his assistance on behalf of this car dealer. Why has the Treasurer, his office or anyone else I can find in this government failed to make any contact—not a fax, a phone call, an email or a letter—to this business?

I will endeavour to find out the facts of the matter and get back to the member because I do take these representations seriously. I will come back with the relevant information.
