I will take those interjections saying, ‘Let’s move onto the substantive issues,’ because there are too many for us to spend too much time on this. Maybe some of the National Party senators could explain to me how they fell for this. I am intrigued by a statement that says:

We are going to have these local content rules, but they are not going to come into place until after we have had a review.

How can we have a review of the local content rules before they have come into place? Does this suggest we are not going to have them? Did you win a concession that said you get a review? You haven’t even got a commitment to get them introduced. Where are they?
