If I were being given the opportunity to ask Senator Farrell questions this morning, I would be asking him: Where is the government's legislation? Why isn't it in the Senate?

And I'd be asking Senator Farrell: why is it less generous? These are the questions that I would be asking Senator Farrell.

Progress reported.
