Senator CONROY (Victoria—Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Deputy Leader of the Government in the Senate and Minister Assisting the Prime Minister on Digital Productivity) (14:13): Could I thank you for that. I am sure all Senators do join you in that particular thought—possibly the whole country! This is a serious question, because those opposite demonstrate their economic illiteracy every single day. They cannot find a place on their front bench for the one person in this chamber who actually knows something about economics, and that is Senator Sinodinos. Honourable senators interjecting— Senator CONROY: Oh, please! Where are you? I cannot even find you anymore, Senator Sinodinos! Where are you hiding? Oh, you are hiding on the front bench! That is a very backbench front bench! We have got one member of those opposite who actually knows something about the economy, just one person who understands. Senator Heffernan: Mr President, on a point of order: if we could turn off the computer we might see if Senator Conroy's mind goes blank. The PRESIDENT: That is not a point of order, Senator Heffernan. Senator CONROY: Thank you, Mr President. To be fair, Senator Heffernan does live in the Dark Ages. He proudly boasts he has never sent an email in his life. The PRESIDENT: Order! Just address the question, Senator Conroy. Senator CONROY: It is probably still true. Senator Heffernan is nodding. It is still true. The PRESIDENT: Order! Senator Conroy, come to the question. Senator CONROY: Mr President, I digress, I apologise. Those opposite have a $70 billion black hole on their own admission in their budget accounting. No doubt they have again hired a Western Australian firm to confirm the audit of their books. This is a firm that was ultimately fined by its own professional agency for the report that it put out. Those opposite may have hired a catering company again to do their mathematics about what the cost of something may be—a catering company that is a discredited company that does an alleged audit. Those opposite demonstrate every single day. They will not give a serious frontbench position to Senator Sinodinos, they will not give him a ministry even if in the future they win government. They will not even make him a minister then. Senator Sinodinos, what have you done wrong? (Time expired)
