Before I recognise the member for Maribyrnong, I was just about to intervene and say, as I've said to the minister before, that he's entitled to a preamble, but that's now approaching a minute. The question was very tight. It had a statement of fact that was necessary for the specific question and there was no commentary or debate in the matter. So, as I said, the minister is entitled to a preamble, but he now needs to bring himself to the specifics of the question or wind up his answer.
