I do remember that answer yesterday, and I have to confess this to the Senate chamber, which probably didn't listen to all of the content after the first bit of, 'Why won't you negotiate with us?' which I thought really was such an interesting question to ask, given that the bill we are talking about has been before the parliament for 290 days. It is amazing how long the Australian Greens can work to not get a vote, because they're so worried about voting with Mr Dutton. That's what it is.

Our housing policy is clear. It does not include the tax changes that you reference. It includes the bill before the chamber, and what I would say to you is that you should support the legislation.
