My question is to the Prime Minister. How can the Prime Minister possibly claim that the government voting for a motion that contained a white supremacist slogan was just an administrative error, when the member for Dawson repeated the white supremacist slogan in a tweet yesterday afternoon? Has the Prime Minister sought an explanation from the members for Dawson and Hume and Liberal senators Stoker and Paterson who, according to today's papers, attended a conference with links to racist hate groups? Was this also just an administrative error?

I won't call the Leader of the House. I can't see how that question's in order. Statements by private members are not the responsibility of any leader. Next question. The member for Flynn.
