I thought I would assist the committee. Senator Abetz was feigning grave concern a moment ago about families driving turbo-charged vehicles. The cars Senator Abetz is talking about are made in Australia—the Ford Falcon G6E, Territory Ghia Turbo and Ford performance vehicles. So the very cars he wants to exempt altogether are cars in that high-performance category that are made in Australia.
