Only this morning, there was an interview with none other than the Deputy Leader of the Opposition, where the Deputy Leader of the Opposition was asked about the Senate committee report that came out yesterday. Members will be aware that the Senate committee has recommended a change in the definition of 'small business' from 15 to 20. The government is considering that change. The words of the Deputy Leader of the Opposition this morning, when interviewed on Sky News by Peter Stefanovic, were these: 'They did make that very modest change, lifting 15 to 20, but that's not going to make a difference.'
