I will bring it back; I intended to do that. We have not run out of steam yet. We have comprehensive policy agendas across whole of government, with plans to make Australia a fairer and better place to grow up, work, raise a family and age well in.

Just this week, this Labor government has released its comprehensive Asian century white paper, and that is a framework for Australia to emerge stronger over the decades ahead by taking advantage of the opportunities offered by the Asian century. Australians look at this government's forward agenda and see a group wanting to take on the tough challenges. They see a government that has repealed that industrial relations relic, Work Choices, and a government that is committed to responsible budget management and has clear plans for Australia's future. They also see an opposition with no vision for our country's future, and that is evident today in this debate.
