():  I congratulate Senator Ruston on her first question for some time. I think it's been a couple of months, hasn't it, Senator Ruston, since you've been given a question? So I appreciate the opportunity to respond to you at this point.

I note that, given the coalition's inability to actually contest the budget, you know when to contest what is not in the budget. We have been very clear about what we are doing and what we are not doing, and what you are asking us about is something we are not doing and we do not intend to do.
