Mr Speaker, I wish to make a personal explanation.
David Hawker Speaker
Does the honourable member claim to have been misrepresented?

I do indeed.

During question time today the Treasurer accused me of moving an amendment to tax law which would have extended a tax break to the James Hardie company. The amendment I moved would have extended a tax break not to the James Hardie company but to the compensation fund designed to compensate victims of the James Hardie company. It was the Treasurer who extended a tax break to the James Hardie company.
