Senator FIFIELD (Victoria—Manager of Government Business in the Senate and Assistant Minister for Social Services) (12:22): I seek leave to make a short statement. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator FIFIELD: A Senate motion is not the appropriate mechanism for dealing with complex foreign policy issues. The Montara oil spill occurred six years ago. The Australian government has shared the results of the operational monitoring reports developed during the incident response and the long-term environmental monitoring undertaken in Australian waters in the years since the spill. Indonesia has sovereignty over the territory in question. As such, environmental monitoring in the territory is an issue for the government of Indonesia.
