I'd ask the minister to withdraw that. When I'm saying 'you' in this context, it's a reference to the government. I understand that we have an assistant minister here who's not responsible for the legislation and who's getting the advice from the bureaucrats. You want to personalise this, Minister. I don't. My reference is to the government.

The TEMPORARY CHAIR: Senator Shoebridge, if you can resume your seat, I was listening to what the minister was saying. I don't believe there was anything there that she needs to withdraw, but I would ask you both to direct your comments through the chair.
