QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Mr WOLAHAN (Menzies) (14:54): My question is to the Prime Minister. The last time the Prime Minister stood with his close friend and factional ally Premier Jacinta Allan, the Prime Minister thanked the Premier for her 'leadership'. But Premier Allan has tanked Victoria's economy, piled up the debt and made Melbourne suburbs less safe.

Why is the Prime Minister taking the failed policies of the Victorian state Labor government to a national level? The SPEAKER: The last part of the question is in order, but, really, the first part the Prime Minister is not responsible for—that is, for other governments. But, as long as he makes his answer relevant to what he is responsible for, it is in order.
