Ms HALL (3:27 PM) —Mr Speaker, I seek to make a personal explanation.


Mr SPEAKER —Does the member for Shortland claim to have been misrepresented?


Ms HALL —Yes, grievously so.


Mr SPEAKER —The member for Shortland may proceed.


Ms HALL —The Minister for Employment, Workplace Relations and Small Business claimed in question time today that I wrote to him supporting his workplace relations legislation, in particular the legislation relating to workers' entitlements. I do not, I have never and I will never support the minister's legislation. Furthermore, I wrote to the minister about some constituents who were disadvantaged because he would not do anything to help them. They are without any entitlements whatsoever.


Mr SPEAKER —The member cannot advance her argument, but she may indicate where she has been misrepresented. As she has done so, she will resume her seat.
