Senator BRANDIS (Queensland—Attorney-General, Vice-President of the Executive Council and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:58): You know, Senator Dastyari, I was wondering if you might give me something for Christmas, and you have delivered. You have delivered with a very generous Christmas question, the last question of the year. When the Prime Minister was referring to runs on the board, he was referring, for example to the runs that Senator Simon Birmingham had put on the board in his reforms of the VET sector and training, which have saved the Australian taxpayer billions of dollars by salvaging a scheme which your side, in government, made a complete and abject mess of. He is referring to people like Senator Arthur Sinodinos, the cabinet secretary, a wiser and more experienced servant of the Australian people— The PRESIDENT: A point of order, Senator Watt? Senator Watt: Mr President, I noticed that in congratulating and pointing out a number of excellent ministers the Attorney-General has not mentioned himself, and I am wondering whether he his going to point himself out as one of the excellent ministers. The PRESIDENT: There is no point of order. Senator BRANDIS: And then we have Senator Concetta Fierravanti-Wells and Senator Ryan and Senator Scullion and Senator Nash, every one of whom has more achievements in their little finger than any minister of your previous, failed government. (Time expired) The PRESIDENT: Senator Dastyari, a final supplementary question?
