Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I remind the minister that the latest lay-offs come on top of the 450 jobs that have already been lost at Forgacs on the Abbott government's watch, making a total of 610 jobs lost at this shipyard alone. This is in a period when you have decided as a government to send two ships offshore. And this is in addition to the 120 jobs lost at ASC in Adelaide and 100 more at BAE in Williamstown— (Time expired)
