I wish to make a personal explanation.
Ms Anna Burke Deputy-Speaker
Does the Leader of the Opposition claim to have been misrepresented?

Most grievously.

Repeatedly today in question time the Prime Minister claimed that I intended to cut funding to public schools. I said no such thing; I intend no such thing; I would do no such thing. There is only one hit list. It is the Prime Minister's hit list under which one in three schools right around Australia will have their funding cut as the Gonski review stands, even if fully funded.
Ms Anna Burke Deputy-Speaker
The Leader of the Opposition will resume his seat. He has indicated where he has been misrepresented.
