I support the Treasury Legislation Amendment (Small Business and Unfair Contract Terms) Bill. At the outset I want to congratulate the work of the Minister for Small Business, Bruce Billson. We do not see eye to eye on all issues, but I think he has brought a lot of energy to that portfolio. He has done a lot of good work for small businesses and I think he has been a very good small business minister. I know in this place you tend not to say anything nice about someone who is not on your side of politics. In fact, sometimes people do not say very nice things about other people on their own side of politics.
