Mr Deputy President, under standing order 74(5), I seek an explanation from the Minister representing the Minister for Human Services, Senator Payne, as to why question No. 2610, which I placed on notice on 12 November 2015, was only answered today, after I advised the minister's office that I would seek an explanation for an overdue answer.
The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Senator Cameron, it is not in order for you to use that standing order if the question has in fact been answered, albeit today.
