Mr Speaker, on indulgence, I did have a conversation with the member for Wentworth. I reiterate my offer to him. I am prepared to have a discussion with the mayor of Woollahra about achieving an appropriate outcome here. It is not in anyone’s interests for this to be a partisan issue. I have made that offer before. I accept that the member for Wentworth is genuine about his position on this. But, if you look at the statements that have been made in the Wentworth Courier, they are not appropriate at all. I reiterate to the member for Wentworth—he has got my mobile—that we can have a discussion and achieve an outcome, as I have already offered.
