My question is to Senator Brandis, the Minister representing the Prime Minister. I refer to the Turnbull government's backflip to support an effects test. I also refer to a report in The Australian Financial Review last year, which stated that 'Cabinet heavy-hitters oppose the policy, including Senator Brandis, Senator Cormann, Mr Turnbull and Ms Bishop.' Do these so-called cabinet heavy-hitters now support an effects test?
