My view—and I will take advice from the Clerk on this—is if the minister is keeping his comments to a narrow construction of the question and the question referred to the Commonwealth responsibility or the Australian responsibility for the rollout of the aged-care program, I cannot go to the content of his answer. He is not free to talk about anything else, but I think that is directly relevant. As I said earlier, I will take some advice from the Clerk about this, but I believe I am being asked to direct him on content.
