My question is to the Prime Minister. Last night in the parliament, the member for Fadden said the government should make it cheaper to rent $100 million superyachts by cutting the GST. Is the reason the Prime Minister has refused to support Labor's policy to axe the GST on tampons that he, just like the member for Fadden, would prefer to abolish the GST on superyachts? Is this Prime Minister and this government so out of touch that they consider tampons a luxury and superyachts a necessity?

I thank the Prime Minister. Once again, the member for Sydney has demonstrated she doesn't know how to tell the truth. These are the simple facts. GST is applied to those vessels if you buy them, if you lease them—it's at 10 per cent. They're the facts. Stop telling untruths.
