Senator CORMANN (Western Australia—Minister for Finance and the Public Service, Vice-President of the Executive Council and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (15:02): We've got a plan, which we have put forward as a government, that improves GST sharing arrangements for Western Australia in a way that leaves every state better off— The PRESIDENT: Senator Wong on a point of order. Senator Wong: He may be getting into it, Mr President, and, if so, I apologise. I raise a point of order on direct relevance. The question directly goes to whether the coalition will be supporting an amendment to protect the states and territories. The PRESIDENT: The minister has 46 seconds remaining. That's sufficient time to come to the question. Senator CORMANN: Our proposal in relation to our plan to improve GST sharing arrangements in a way that leaves every state better off is a matter of public record. Any legislation to implement it, which we have foreshadowed, will of course go through the normal processes of our party, as I would expect them to go through the normal processes of your party. The PRESIDENT: Senator Brown, a final supplementary question.
