MAHER (Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy) (14:27):</by>  I will answer it with the answer it deserves. I have already answered this question. I am not going to go into detail about what was or wasn't discussed. The Hon. Michelle Lensink has not said what their policy is, as I invited her to do, so we have to assume that their policy is to disclose immediately every single conversation they have with business when they are in government. That will be very interesting. We thank her for her announcement of policy today.</text>
