QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator FARRELL (South Australia—Minister for Trade and Tourism, Special Minister of State and Deputy Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:48): I thank Senator Hanson for her second supplementary question. It's going to be very difficult to embarrass me, Senator Hanson. I have been in this place so long and so many things have been done to me in politics that it's virtually impossible to embarrass me, and can I say that this issue is not going to be one of those that embarrasses me.

Senator Hanson, you should be the one being embarrassed. The reality is that you've never, ever supported— The PRESIDENT: Minister Farrell, please direct your answers to me. Senator FARRELL: I'm sorry, President.

Of course I will. You've never, ever supported the compulsory superannuation system which is a world-leading achievement of this country but also the Labor government. This scheme only came in under Labor.
