Senator SINODINOS (New South Wales—Cabinet Secretary) (14:04): All I can say is that the Prime Minister, the foreign minister and the Minister for the Environment in Paris did Australia proud. They went there and stood up for the Australian way of dealing with climate change. That is what they did—the Australian way. Senator Wong: Mr President, I rise on a point of order: direct relevance. The question had nothing to do with what the Prime Minister, the foreign minister and whoever else did in Paris. It was a question that said: How does the Prime Minister reconcile the abolition of 200 more science jobs with his claim support for science and innovation? Aren't these drastic cuts just another example of Prime Minister Turnbull saying one thing and doing the exact opposite? The PRESIDENT: Cabinet Secretary, I will remind you of the question and inform you that you have 43 seconds in which to answer. Senator SINODINOS: I can only repeat: the advice from the CSIRO is that there will be no net job losses within the organisation. What they are doing is realigning their resources with their priorities internally. In the case of the climate change situation, they are looking at mitigation and adaptation measures.
