I am sorry, Senator Urquhart; you must not have been listening to the answer to the primary question.

Senator Cormann interjecting—

Well, Senator Cormann, that is true, but I was not going to be so unchivalrous as to point that out! Now, Senator Urquhart, as I said in answer to the primary question, there will be no change to the 50 per cent CGT discount for individuals. The government is still carefully considering some other changes. That is the way that tax policy is developed by a government that goes about the development of policy in a careful, methodical way that considers all the matters that ought to be considered.
