Isn't that really the point: wait for MYEFO? We have said, as the minister probably knows, that we intend to ensure that this debate is concluded prior to question time today. We have said that already, so he can be assured of that. But I would make the point that, again, he is saying, 'It'll all be revealed.' You are asking this parliament, after campaigning against debt and deficit for years, to now sign off on no limit to debt, without providing a budget update and your reasons why. That is the reality.
