Be courageous, I know. Given the earlier discussion, and I suppose a little bit of self-indulgence, I have to share with the Senate, after the dialogue with Senator Conroy, the quip I made here amongst ourselves. I do have to share that with the Senate.

An honourable senator: No you don't.

Why not, Senator?

An honourable senator: Because you're boring.

Well, that is fine. I am sure you are bored, but unfortunately we would rather you were not and you actually understood what you are doing. That would be a much better scene.

An honourable senator: Competent.

Well, competent would be good too.
