I seek leave to make a short statement—I'd say 30 seconds.

Leave granted.

The government will be opposing this motion. In response to order 119, the government has already provided exactly what Senator Bragg asked for. The modelling of contingent liabilities of the Home Guarantee Scheme is laid out for him in black and white in the documents already produced. Senator Bragg believes that the Prime Minister has previously referred to the conducted modelling in public forums and that this makes the minister's PII claims over other sections of these documents irrelevant. The Prime Minister has referred publicly to home price impact modelling which shows a very, very minor impact to home prices of around half a per cent over six years. (Time expired)
