Senator GALLAGHER (Australian Capital Territory—Minister for the Public Service, Minister for Finance, Minister for Women, Manager of Government Business in the Senate and Vice-President of the Executive Council) (14:15): As we've been clear— Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Minister, resume your seat. Senator Wong and Senator Henderson: exchanges across the chamber are disorderly. An honourable senator interjecting— The PRESIDENT: I beg your pardon if it wasn't you, but it is very hard with the level of noise to work out who is making the noise. But comments across the chamber are disorderly. Minister. Senator GALLAGHER: The answer to that question is contingent on a number of decisions that are yet to be made through the budget— An honourable senator interjecting— Senator GALLAGHER: Well, what do you expect? I'm being honest with you! I'm being honest— The PRESIDENT: Minister, resume your seat please. Senator Bilyk? Senator Bilyk: Madam President, I'm having huge trouble hearing Senator Gallagher's wonderful response so could you quieten people down? The PRESIDENT: Thank you, Senator Bilyk, I'm trying my very best, which is why I keep sitting the minister down, sadly. Honourable senators interjecting— Th e PRESIDENT: Order! Senators Wong and Birmingham! Minister, please continue. Senator GALLAGHER: The very clear answer is that the decisions that will be made—to answer his question—are going to be made during the budget process, which is underway now. But I can tell you that they will end the rorts, they will end the waste and they will make the savings we promised in reducing advertising. Remember all those advertising campaigns that were always ready to go before the actual programs were ready? They were out the door pretty quickly. The budget will be handed down on 25 October. The PRESIDENT: Senator Smith, a second supplementary question.
