On the response to reports—for the honourable member for Calare—I gave the same criticism during the Hawke-Keating years as a backbench member of the governing political party. I think that it is important that executive government understands that it should not display arrogance to the parliament and, through that arrogance to the parliament, arrogance to the people of Australia.
