Mr Speaker, I seek your assistance under standing order 105(b) in relation to questions outstanding on the Notice Paper for more than 60 days. I refer to question nos 6042 and 6043 to the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry from 18 June this year, question no. 6054 to the Minister for Education, Science and Training, question no. 6055 to the Minister for Families, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs, and from 21 June, question no. 6076 to the Minister for Justice and Customs, no. 6077 to the Treasurer, and nos 6081, 6082, 6083 and 6084 to the Minister for Vocational and Further Education, and nos. 6086, 6087 and 6088 to the Minister for Education, Science and Training. I would be grateful if you would write to those ministers in these very late stages of the 41st Parliament and get answers for my constituents, who are unsettled by not having answers.

Mr Speaker, it has now been more than two years since I placed questions on the Notice Paper relating to industrial relations matters. Accordingly, under standing order 105(b), I ask you to write to the Prime Minister and other relevant ministers again, to seek answers to my questions nos 2302 to 2320.
