My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister's previous answers. Is the Prime Minister seriously claiming the Australian people don't have the right to know the details and the cost of his secret deal with Senator Pauline Hanson to secure his company tax cuts?

I thank the honourable member for her question. As I said earlier, the government engages in negotiations with crossbenchers in the Senate. We engage in negotiations with the Labor Party as well, and occasionally with the Greens. We treat every member of the House with respect and consideration and earnestly urge them to support our program. Those discussions are always held with the confidence that that respect entails, and, if and when agreement is reached and legislation is passed, all is revealed.
