I ask a supplementary question, Mr President. Will the minister now apologise for misleading the Australian public about the impact of gutting the media ownership laws? Does the minister concede that the new media laws will deliver a massive windfall to some of the most powerful people in Australia? Isn’t Terry McCrann right when he says:

YOU only get one Helen Coonan in your lifetime. But boy, she’s even better than one Alan Bond if the name’s Packer. James Packer.
