On the point of order, I contend that there is no point of order. That is the second time Senator Abetz has tried to take that spurious point of order. Senator Ludwig is answering directly on the subject of the ABCC, its power, its future and Labor government policy relating to it. He is clearly on message on the question as asked. While Senator Abetz may be disappointed that after talking up his promotional prospects all weekend they did not eventuate, I am sorry about that. But Senator Ludwig is particularly on the subject matter of the question asked.
