I am trying to answer a very serious question but given the puerile nature of interjections from the opposition it makes it very difficult. As I was saying, there are one million Australians whose jobs are at stake and the opposition is putting those jobs at risk by failing to support a bipartisan approach to our new car plan for the Australian automotive sector. As recently as September, the coalition said they did not support the Gillard government's assistance to Ford and Holden. Now they say they might, but they will not commit. They could commit today if they really wanted to. (Time expired)
