As I often point out, the question had a long preamble. I don't want to have an argument with the member for Warringah, but I listened very carefully and there was quite a long preamble before she got to a very specific question. If you need the answer to be tied tightly to a specific question, you need to not have a broad preamble that allows the minister or the Prime Minister answering it to range more widely. The Prime Minister is in order.
