Mr PYNE (Sturt—Manager of Opposition Business) (14:40): My question is to the Assistant Treasurer. Given his admission that he has contacted selected businesses today to discuss changes to thin capitalisation rules ahead of the budget, will he detail which businesses and why? Mr Albanese: I rise on a point of order. It is completely disorderly for a minister to be verballed in the way that a question is written— The SPEAKER: Order! The Manager of Opposition Business will resume his seat. The Leader of the House has the call and will be heard in silence! Mr Albanese: on the basis of the standing order which precludes argument from being used. The SPEAKER: The member for Sturt can rephrase the question without the argument. Mr PYNE: Madam Speaker, my question is to the Assistant Treasurer. Given the Assistant Treasurer's earlier answer, where he said that he was consulting with businesses in relation to changes to the thin capitalisation rules today, ahead of the budget, will he detail which businesses and why? That is exactly what he said. Mr Albanese: I rise on a point of order. He is almost there, but he cannot use argument. It is pretty easy to frame the question he seeks to ask; he is competent to do it and he should do it. Mr Wyatt interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Hasluck is warned. The Assistant Treasurer has the call.
