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) (14:19): I say to Australians who are rightly concerned about increasing power prices that they have a government that is 100 per cent focused on responding to this in every way it can and that will work with states and territories, who also have responsibilities here, to do what it can. Opposition senators interjecting— Senat or GALLAGHER: Sorry; I know I shouldn't respond to interjections, but I know working with states and territories was a foreign concept to those opposite when they were in government for 10 years. That was part of the problem. Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Please resume your seat, Minister. Order across the chamber! Minister, please continue. Senator GALLAGHER: A foreign concept where the federation works together in the interest of the Australian people—I know that is foreign, but that is what we will do. We are committed to it from the highest levels of government. We will be dealing with this. That is what we say to the Australian people about it. The PRESIDENT: Senator Cash, second supplementary?
