One of the difficulties in this chamber is that if the tactic is to provide documents as we proceed through question time then it does interrupt the flow of question time. The issue is that we are just having this document checked. It does not appear to be the complete document. I wanted to take the opportunity, as with Senator Abetz’s document, to work towards ensuring that the documents are tabled, but the appropriate time is after question time, and we will be able to provide a proper response at that time.
