Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:38): I've seen some of the social media by Senator Canavan on this. Senator Canavan: I'm glad you follow me, Senator Wong. Senator WONG: Yes, avidly. I particularly liked you in your high-vis vest in your backyard. I thought that was great. It's clearly a very dangerous backyard you've got! I should have put that on when we were doing the kids' trampoline. It's a very risky backyard there. Anyway, I make these points. First, the government is committing— The PRESIDENT: Senator Wong, please resume your seat. Senator Bandt—I'm sorry; I beg your pardon; my bad. Obviously my glasses need renewing. My apologies; I thought you were someone from the other place. I'm sorry to have interrupted you, Minister. Please continue. Senator WONG: Obviously the minister for infrastructure is being represented by— Senator Canavan interjecting— Senator WONG: No, that's fine. I'm answering the question. I'm just trying to be helpful, Senator Canavan. The PRESIDENT: Order! Senator Canavan, you've put your question. Senator WONG: Obviously Senator Watt is more across this than I would be. I understand, in relation to that particular project, it is incorrect to assert that it is being cut. It is the case that those opposite, as was the habit of the Morrison government, made a lot of announcements without making sure that those announcements could actually be delivered. It is an extraordinary thing, isn't it, to have a government that actually wants to make sure that, when it announces projects, it is funding them in a way that can make sure— The PRESIDENT: Minister Wong, please resume your seat. Senator Canavan: This is a point of order on relevance. The question is about a statement that the Prime Minister made. It is about the article about the government's agenda. But all I have heard from Senator Wong is blaming the previous government here. The PRESIDENT: There's to be no commentary, thank you, Senator Canavan. Please resume your seat. Senator Canavan: She's insulting the businesses of Central Queensland. The PRESIDENT: Please resume— Senator Canavan interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Canavan, please resume your seat. I remind senators: if you are rising on a point of order, the point of order is to be short and sharp and is not to have commentary. Minister Wong is being relevant. Senator WONG: I was trying to explain what was occurring in relation to the project in question. We have reviewed projects in the infrastructure program to better align investment with market capacity, consulting with the states and the territories through this process. This is what responsible governments do. I will be very clear: I understand that the $823 million for the Rockhampton Ring Road remains in the budget. It remains in the budget, but unlike the former government we're actually being upfront about project delivery time lines. That's the responsible thing to do. Senator McKenzie interjecting— Senator WONG: Senator McKenzie, you can yell all you like, but an announcement is not delivery. (Time expired) The PRESIDENT: I remind you, Senator McKenzie, that calling out across the chamber is— Senator McKenzie interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator McKenzie, it does not require commentary; I am drawing you to order. Senator Canavan, a first supplementary question?
