Senator ABETZ (Tasmania—Leader of the Government in the Senate, Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Public Service and Minister for Employment) (14:17): In relation to honouring election promises, I feel in very great company with the Hon. Will Hodgman, who is in the gallery. He is also from Tasmania and he stood by his election promise of not doing any deal with the Greens, unlike those opposite. So I am delighted to take the supplementary question from the Leader of the Opposition in the Senate— Opposition senators interjecting— Senator ABETZ: It is nice to see the Labor Party smiling and laughing as well! The PRESIDENT: Order! When there is silence on my left we will proceed. Senator ABETZ: In relation to the funding envelope, the Labor Party promised $2.8 billion. We promise $2.8 billion as well. But the former minister for finance, who now sits here as the Leader of the Opposition in the Senate, was part and parcel of the tactic by the then Minister for Education, now Leader of the Opposition in the other place, who took $1.2 billion out of that funding envelope which we have replaced.
