Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer to the minister's assertion that it is 'as clear as day' that Ms O'Dwyer is referring to new housing. Can he explain, then, why she said that these reforms 'will increase the cost of housing for all Australians, for those people who own a home and for those who would like to get into the housing market.' Can the minister explain how 'those people who own a home' can possibly be a reference to new housing? (Time expired)
