The government was comprehensive in its response ... (but) I would characterize the proposals as disappointing.
A prime minister's job is to make sure the government works for those who have elected him, and not for big corporations.
What the government is proposing is unacceptable, ... There's no basis for our party to express confidence in this government.
The responsibility of a minister is to step aside when there is a criminal investigation of the department. That protects the propriety of Parliament and of responsible government.
I've always favoured proposition over opposition. But we will oppose the government when it's off track.We'll support positive suggestions that we'll bring forward and support the government when it's making progress.
