As Treasurer, I introduced the law to this parliament which not only ensured banking executives who do the wrong thing get prosecuted but saw, as a result of the prosecutions that took place under my watch, the biggest corporate fine ever delivered to a company in this country. I introduced laws which meant that banking executives who do the wrong thing should be punted from the banking industry forever. That's what I did on the banks, and those opposite sought to frustrate it. Now those opposite don't want union thugs who attack women being called to account and kicked out of their jobs. We stand up for what we believe on this side of the House, and we believe ugly, militant unionism should have no place in this country. Clearly, by the way he has acted in this place and frustrated and sought to oppose this bill, the Leader of the Opposition believes that it does.

I'll ask the Treasurer to add to the answer.
