Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Can the minister explain why, on a question of a tax imposed by her government on Queensland in 71 days' time, she can give no more than a collage of motherhood statements, instead of giving a qualitative answer with facts—that she says in her statement to Senator Brandis are so important—to the questions that are important? On not one issue was she able to table an exact answer or give nothing more than a general motherhood statement.
