You might just wait for at least half a sentence to finish before you interrupt. Seriously! I'm trying to give you a decent answer. You might not like it, but I am actually trying. Senator, your point seems to be that it was okay for the minister in 2021, under a coalition government, to listen to this group, but it's not okay now. That is not how the law works and that is not how the appropriate exercise of ministerial responsibility works. It isn't how it works. (Time expired)
