Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Isn’t it true that the government is a substitution denier? And isn’t it true that the government could bring legislation before the Senate in this sitting week to vote on whether the alcopops tax should proceed or not but has purposely chosen to wait until June so that it can manipulate the Senate to ensure this tax can be used as a trigger for a double dissolution?
