Again, I don't accept the premise of the question that's been put to me. If you are worried, Senator Bragg, about the Commonwealth participating in the market and buying houses because you're saying there's not enough supply, why did you block supply for so long? Why did you block housing supply with the Australian Greens? Let's be really clear. Senator Bragg and Senator Cash want to ask me about housing, but they have never explained to the Australian people, particularly to young Australians, why they stood in the way of more houses for so long.

With that, President, I ask that further questions be placed on the Notice Paper.
