Ian Macfarlane (Groom, Liberal Party, Shadow Minister for Energy and Resources) Share this | Hansard source

I was only going to speak once on this but I do like things that are said in this House to be correct. It is part of what we are here for. There is a fundamental difference between this scheme as it applies now and as it applied in 1999. You need to be careful, Minister, when you draw those comparisons that you draw them accurately. It was a duty concession scheme in 1999. It is now an outright grant scheme, and there is a fundamental difference. The opposition has every right to ask for these amendments to be carried.
