Point of order concerning relevance. Can Michael Smith on 2UE talking about Fair Work Australia have anything to do with this bill. I ask you to bring the senator back to debating the bill. It will be a rarity for him to make a policy contribution in this place. Now that he is the high-powered shadow minister for tourism there was a hope that he could break his duck.
The TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN: Thank you, we are not debating the issue. Senator Ronaldson I draw your attention to the point. I have told you I will be watching what you are doing and you have repeated the same point. Can we get back to the issues around Telstra.
