My question is to the Minister for Finance and Deregulation, representing the Minister for Superannuation and Corporate Law. Can the Minister for Finance and Deregulation confirm that the Australian arm of Beijing AustChina Technology is a one dollar company and that its principal place of business is a suburban house in the Sydney suburb of Warriewood? Will the minister for finance disclose all information held by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission on AustChina Technology, including its relationship with a Chinese parent company?

I thank the honourable member for his question. I cannot confirm any of those matters. I am happy to refer them to the Minister for Superannuation and Corporate Law for further advice.

Mr Speaker, I rise on a point of order. I ask the minister to report that information to the House.
