Madam Speaker, I wish to make a personal explanation.

Does the Leader of the Opposition claim to have been misrepresented?

Tony Abbott (Warringah, Liberal Party, Leader of the Opposition) Share this | Link to this | Hansard source

Yes, grievously.

Ms Anna Burke (Speaker) Share this | Link to this | Hansard source

Please proceed.

In question time today, the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations claimed that the coalition and I wanted to bring back individual workplace agreements. This is quite wrong. We support individual flexibility arrangements, more workable ones, and as the Prime Minister has said these are not individual statutory agreements.

The Leader of the Opposition will resume his seat.
