Good call—as it turns out, very good call. But about one-third of the country voted for Labor on the promise of transparency and on being different. They, kind of, are a bit different: they're less transparent, even less transparent than the coalition. We could point to the attacks on whistleblowers. The coalition kicks off prosecutions, and Labor puts whistleblowers in jail. The coalition sees delays in FOI, and Labor blows them out to new untold delays—year-long delays, half-decade-long delays.

Show us the framework. Live up to the promises you gave to the Australian people when you got elected. Be transparent.

Question agreed to.
