Mr STEPHEN SMITH (Perth—Minister for Defence and Deputy Leader of the House) (14:57): Major General Cantwell is a respected former member of the Australian Defence Force. He has made his own substantial contribution. I am not proposing to get into a running commentary about who said what to whom; I simply make the point that I was surprised, disappointed and saddened by the contribution that he made. It was a wrong and unfair depiction of my visit to Afghanistan and a wrong and unfair depiction of my contribution to our forces in the field. The SPEAKER: The minister has concluded, I think. Mr Abbott interjecting— The SPEAKER: Order! The Leader of the Opposition does not have the call at this point in time. Has the minister finished? The minister has concluded.
