Di Natale, Sen Richard

Senator DI NATALE (Victoria—Leader of the Australian Greens) (14:23): Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. In last night's budget speech, the Treasurer said: We will not be able to rely on our natural advantages in resources to secure the jobs of the future like we have in the past. Yet, in the budget, the Treasurer announced that they are giving $110 million to survey the country to help mining companies develop greenfield sites, yet taking out $1.3 billion from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency—with the support of the Labor Party, it must be said. How does that square up?
