I just want to go back to the question again for the poor people in South Australia, and trust me, there are a lot of poor people in South Australia. The only thing that South Australians and Tasmanians fight about is who has the biggest unemployment for the month, who is the poorest for the month. For the people of South Australia and the people of Tasmania we would like to know what deal you have done with the Nick Xenophon Team to take from the poor. I would remind you that that is why your Three Amigos are no longer in Tasmania. I would expect that, in the next federal election, if you continue this behaviour, which is a bad pattern of behaviour, you are going to lose more. If you could please answer the question so that those in South Australia and those in Tasmania know what sort of filthy, dirty deal you have done to push the poor further into the ground. You owe it to them. Grow a spine!

The CHAIR: The question is that schedules 1, 3 and 4 on sheet 8174 stand as printed.

The CHAIR: The question now is that the bill stand as printed.
