My question is to the Acting Prime Minister. I refer to Holden's announcement today that it will discontinue vehicle manufacturing in Australia by the end of 2017. What does the Acting PM say to the 1,600 Holden workers in South Australia and 1,300 workers in Victoria who will lose their jobs as a result of the government's complacency and to workers in the autoindustry across Australia whose jobs, of course, are now in jeopardy?
