Senator CARR (Victoria—Minister for Innovation, Industry, Science and Research) (14:59): This question clearly has nothing whatsoever to do with the ministerial responsibilities that I am seeking to represent here—that is for the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship—or my own responsibilities in regard to the innovation portfolio. What I can say is that this is a government that is functioning extremely well and this is a government that has a very sound record of achievement in regard to a whole host of policies. This, by the way, is a parliament, despite the very best efforts of those opposite, that is actually functioning. We have passed a very significant number of important pieces of legislation, despite the efforts of those opposite to frustrate and try to obstruct the work of the government and obstruct the results, effectively, of the last election. The ultimate question here is your total disrespect for the people of Australia and your view that anyone other than yourselves is illegitimate. (Time expired) Senator Chris Evans: Mr President, I ask that further questions be placed on the Notice Paper.
