A very telling interjection from the shadow minister! He is not interested in the substance, not interested in policy, not interested in jobs being created; he is only interested in muck raking and point-scoring, just like his colleagues.

In relation to timing, it does not matter how many times you ask and in how many different ways, my answer will remain the same. My answer will remain the same in relation to consultations and discussions. I refer the honourable member to my previous answers.
