Mr SHORTEN (Maribyrnong—Leader of the Opposition) (14:24): My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to ongoing speculation since early December that the government would offer support for a stand-by facility. Prime Minister, what will be the implication for Qantas jobs, the Qantas share price and Qantas shareholders if that speculation does not result in action, and when will the government act to support Australia's national airline?
