Senator GALLAGHER (Australian Capital Territory—Minister for the Public Service, Minister for Finance, Minister for Women, Manager of Government Business in the Senate and Vice-President of the Executive Council) (14:05): Honestly? Senator Sterle: Who writes this crap? The PRESIDENT: Senator Sterle, that was inappropriate. S enator GALLAGHER: Is this really the best you can do midway through a sitting week? Honestly. We have an incredible candidate who has been appointed to a senior job in the economic portfolio, the first time a woman has held it and this is the level of question we get from the opposition. I would say that we intend to take note of the Productivity Commission's reports unlike those opposite, where the decade they were in power had the worst productivity outcomes in 60 years. Get that—60 years. That is what you did. And part of the problem was, every time the Productivity Commission released a report, you ignored it. It sat on the shelf. You didn't even bother responding to it. We look forward to working with Ms Wood. We look forward to her leadership and the skills that she will bring to the economic debates in this country. The PRESIDENT: Senator Hume, on a point of order? Senator Hume: On direct relevance. It was a very simple question as to whether the Treasurer has directed the Productivity Commission to rule out an inheritance tax. We did not get an answer. The PRESIDENT: I will invite the minister in the three seconds remaining if she has anything further to add? Senator GALLAGHER: No.
