Senator McGRATH (Queensland—Assistant Minister to the Prime Minister) (15:59): I seek leave to make a short statement. The PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator McGRATH: The coalition government is committed to Australia's rail manufacturing industry. In the 2017-18 budget, the government renewed its commitment to invest in rail infrastructure with $20 billion committed over the next decade. The government's major rail initiatives include $8.4 billion in equity funding for inland rail, $10 billion over 10 years for a national rail program to improve urban and regional rail networks, $792 million to progress Metronet projects in Western Australia, $20 million for up to three business cases for faster rail connections between major capital cities and regional centres, and a number of significant measures included in the June 2017 $1.6 billion Victorian rail announcement. The PRESIDENT: The question is that motion no. 687 be agreed to.
