You can shake your head all you like, but I can't carry all that information in my head the whole time.</text>

People sometimes forget things, sir; it is like standing at Menz chocolates the day before the election telling everyone to vote Labor: sometimes things get stuck in your head that are a mistake. I don't have the numbers here in front of me and, rather than give you the wrong information, Mr Speaker, or the wrong information to the house, what I'm doing is going away to give you a detailed answer tomorrow.</text>
