Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:09): I hadn't heard that quote before, but— Senator McKenzie: It's on the front page of the AFR. The PRESIDENT: Order! Senator WONG: I've been doing a few other things. I'm sorry; I don't sit around reading the quotes of every— Honourable senators interjecting— Senator WONG: No, it's not that. I'm just saying that I don't have every quote of a minister who I don't represent. I'm sure Minister Watt would have an excellent answer on this question. Senator Watt: In fact, I read every word! Senator WONG: I'm sure he read every word—oh, really! The PRES IDENT: Minister Wong, please resume your seat. Senator McKenzie. Senator McKenzie: President, as Minister Wong is seeking to elicit laughs from her side, the relevance of my question— The PRESIDENT: Senator McKenzie, that is not a point of order. Resume your seat. Senator Watt. Senator Watt: Thank you, President. I think you were going there anyway, but surely Senator McKenzie has to name the point of order? What is the point of order? The PRESIDENT: Senator Watt, why are you on your feet? I have ruled the point of order out of order. Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Seriously, senators! I'm going to ask Minister Wong to continue. Senator WONG: Thank you, President. What I was going to say is that from what I heard of the quote it seems that it's an eminently sensible position to ensure that Infrastructure Australia can properly assess this important project, which the government was elected with a commitment to implement, which we are funding and which already has a business case. It seems to me an eminently sensible position to ensure that it properly stacks up— Senator McKenzie: The Victorian Auditor-General says doesn't stack up! The PRESIDENT: Order! Order! Senator WONG: Eminently sensible to ensure it properly stacks up, and that's what the minister's quote goes to. (Time expired)
