Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I refer to Mr Abbott's comments yesterday that the government has got 'nearly 80 per cent of our budget measures through the Senate'. I also refer to Mr Abbott's description of the Senate as 'feral' and the Acting Leader of the Government in the Senate's claim yesterday that the Senate is a 'house of refusal'. Minister, which of these statements is correct?
