Senator NASH (New South Wales—Deputy Leader of The Nationals, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Local Government and Territories and Minister for Regional Communications) (14:37): I thank Senator McKenzie for her question and for her tireless work for regional communities. Unlike those opposite, we on this side of the chamber, the Liberal-National coalition, are strongly supportive of regional communities. We are a government that wants to invest in those communities and to invest in their futures. We want those communities to have good jobs, high-paying jobs and better access to services. Part of our commitment to growing jobs outside of our major capital cities is to look at opportunities to decentralise government agencies to rural and regional areas. We clearly took these plans to the 2013 federal election and we then went to the last election with specific relocation initiatives—relocations that we have now secured a clear mandate to deliver. Some of the agency relocations that we have already commenced include: relocating the Rural Industries Research and Development Corporation to Wagga Wagga; relocating the Grains Research & Development Corporation to Toowoomba, Dubbo, Northam and Adelaide; relocating the Fisheries Research and Development Centre to establish a southern headquarters office in Adelaide; and relocating the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority to Armidale. Opposition senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order on my left! Senator NASH: A great move for the people of Armidale! Also, we know how important it is, as Senator McKenzie has referred to, that for Traralgon and the wider Latrobe Valley community we protect the hundreds of Australian Securities and Investment Commission's jobs that are based there. As senators would be aware, the Senate Finance and Public Administration Committee is conducting an inquiry into this very issue. I strongly encourage all of our people in regional communities and rural stakeholders to have their say and to actually send Labor a message by saying, 'Those of us in regional communities deserve to have jobs, too.' The PRESIDENT: Senator McKenzie, a supplementary question.
