Let us get this absolutely crystal clear. The Treasurer never called anyone on paid parental leave a fraudster and the Minister for Social Services never called anyone on paid parental leave a rorter—never, ever, never. I want to say to members opposite: verballing ministers is no substitute for sound policy and verballing ministers is no substitute for hard work. Verballing ministers is their stock in trade.
