Whether, through the public media or our cables, I have not received any information that Christmas is going to be delayed. You can rest easy, honourable Senator. On workplace laws, let me make this point: it does raise the question of having nimble, agile elves of the 21st century to assist Santa. If we have labour market arrangements that do that, we will all be much better off. What I fear is that, if we were employing Australian elves, there would be some people in this parliament who would seek to make them members of some of the unions represented in this chamber.
