I will redirect the question. My question is to the Minister for Social Services. I refer to a freedom of information request about paid parental leave. This request was rejected because it would have taken four days to consider the 550 pages of insults in which the Treasurer or his colleagues described working women as double dippers, fraudsters and rorters. Will the social services minister apologise on behalf of the government for describing working mums in such abusive and disrespectful terms? (Time expired)
