Let us be honest, the Greens stand to gain a great deal here, yet they claim to be against public funding, against big donations and against this entire bill. Are they going to be writing a cheque back to consolidated revenue for the difference between the $8 and the $5? Are they going to be writing a cheque back with regard to the administrative funding? Are they going to be capping themselves at $500,000 next time? Of course they are not.

It is very important that the record show that Mr Rattenbury is notionally arguing for his side, with the full benefit that they are going to reap all the rewards of the heavy lifting being done by the government and opposition here. I think it is very important Hansard reflect that.
