Senator PAYNE (New South Wales—Minister for Defence) (14:16): As I think has been discussed at estimates—Senator Carr, I'm not sure whether you were in the room at the time—obviously the work that proceeds in relation to the planning under the Naval Shipbuilding Plan is based on a range of priorities. It includes the infrastructure at Osborne, it includes the work for the future frigates, the work that is being done for the offshore patrol vessels and the work that is being done for the future submarines. The PRESIDENT: Senator Wong on a point of order. Senator Wong: It is a point of order on direct relevance, Mr President. This is the third or fourth question after yesterday's question from Senator Patrick. The FOI documents make clear the work was suspended. We simply are asking for the date. The PRESIDENT: Senator Payne is being relevant to the question asked and is directly dealing with the material. I cannot instruct the minister how to answer a question. Senator PAYNE: Thank you very much, Mr President. I don't have a specific date with me. I'm very happy to take that matter on notice and to provide advice to the Senate. However, what I would say is that the only reason we are in a position of needing to manage the presence at Osborne, the size of the development at Osborne, the infrastructure creation at Osborn is that this government has not only commissioned 12 new future submarines for Australia but also nine new frigates and offshore vessels, 54 vessels in total—in sharp contrast to those opposite, who did nothing to address the jobs issue attached to it. (Time expired) The PRESIDENT: Senator Carr, a final supplementary question.
