Minister, I'm asking about the Murphy report. Not a single one of those things was mentioned as a recommendation in the Murphy report. Recent research by Deakin University shows that children themselves are asking the Prime Minister to ban gambling ads, the young Australians who come and watch us. Here's a quote from a 12-year-old boy in New South Wales: 'He's supposed to be responsible for having a good country, but we're making a bad country because of gambling.' Do the voices of children matter to the Prime Minister, and will we see the banning of gambling advertising this term?
