Yet again, I remind the member for Sturt that sometimes I have made requests for withdrawals from people who have been interjecting that may not have been the same if that person had had the proper call. I am saying to people that if they want to rewrite history about comments of the ilk of the Minister for Finance and Deregulation they may, but I am not going to on this occasion. I indicated that from very early on in the answer, even before the motion that the member be no longer heard was put, I listened very carefully to the response and I do not think there is anything, given the past practice of this place, that requires withdrawing.
