Time is of the essence. I call on the Leader to bring the Minister for Finance or the Minister for Enterprise, Jobs and Innovation before the House and see how we can expedite decisions on behalf of banks so that our companies are not losing their orders and opportunities to employ people. The small and medium enterprise sector is the lifeblood of our economy and I fear for its future if our banks are this tardy in making decisions.
