Yes, I can see why you would be smiling, Senator Cormann. I am pleased that Mr Turnbull has taken some time off from his full-time job of destabilising Mr Abbott to actually do a little bit of policy work. I am sure that even Senator Birmingham, who is very diligent in the pursuit of his portfolio areas and very diligent in representing Mr Turnbull in this area, gets tired of carrying Mr Turnbull. I know you got tired of carrying him, Senator Cormann. We are always open to consultation and amendments that will improve it.
