I am sorry that Senator Abetz does not get paid some attention by Senator Brandis. I refer again to Senator Abetz, who said:

If we keep going full steam ahead and pretend that nothing happened on July 2 other than a huge mandate for us, we will be going to an electoral disaster in 2019.

Does the minister agree with Senator Abetz that the election failed to deliver a mandate to the Turnbull government?
