Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I refer the minister to Mr Crean's further statements at his first press conference today that the government was 'in a state of stalemate' and in his second press conference today when he said the government was 'in a state of deadlock'. Does the minister agree with Mr Crean's comments? Isn't it the truth that he serves in a government which is disintegrating before our very eyes?
