I thank the Treasurer and I simply make the point that the member for La Trobe has moved a division but couldn't gain the support from his own members to back in his division. The member for La Trobe was keen to block an instant tax write-off for over three million small businesses in this country, but he couldn't get the support of any members of his caucus for that—and for good reason.

With that point made, I present the reasons for the House of Representatives disagreeing to the amendments of the Senate, and I move:

That the reasons be adopted.

I hope this time we're able to gain the support of coalition members for over three million small businesses in this country.

Question agreed to.
