Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. The TPP has been labelled a 'dud' by Hillary Clinton—one of its original architects—and the supposed benefits of the deal have been queried by a number of respected economists and commentators. As recommended by the Harper review and by the Senate inquiry into our flawed treaty process, will you refer the TPP to the Productivity Commission for independent review, and when will you finally release the text of this most secret agreement?
