I'm always happy to take a lecture from the member for New England on accuracy and relevance. In this case I will say that however the money was passed to Clive Palmer to cover his legal bills from the Australian government, when it was led by those opposite, they did it and that was money they could have given to small businesses and instead chose to pay Clive Palmer's legal bills. I'll leave it there, even though I lost some time. (Time expired)
