I refer the member to my comments last year on this matter, where I made very plain my regret for not having called the royal commission sooner. But I remind the member that I was the Treasurer who did call the royal commission and I am the Prime Minister who has received the report of that royal commission and is acting on the recommendations of the royal commission. I am the Prime Minister who, as the then Treasurer, introduced the Banking Executive Accountability Regime. I am the Prime Minister who, as the then Treasurer, with the Minister for Revenue and Financial Services, introduced the Australian Financial Complaints Authority and increased funding for ASIC to ensure that they had the powers, the penalties and the resources to do the job.
