Senator WATT (Queensland—Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry and Minister for Emergency Management) (14:55): I have every confidence in the Victorian government's commitment to build— Senator McGrath: So there's no evidence that it's fully funded? Senator McKenzie: Is it fully funded? Senator WATT: That's five seconds. The PRESIDENT: Minister, please resume your seat. Opposition senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order on my left! I have a senator on his feet. Senator Van? Senator Van: A point of order on relevance: I didn't ask about your assurances; I asked about evidence. The PRESIDENT: With respect, the minister was about five seconds into his answer, so we'll listen. Senator WATT: Things must be pretty grave in the Victorian campaign if Senator Van is the person who is being turned to to rescue the Liberal Party in Victoria. As I said, I have every confidence that the Victorian government will— The PRESIDENT: Senator Watt, please resume your seat. Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order on my left and right! Senator Henderson? Senator Henderson: That was a really inappropriate reflection on a senator in this place, and I ask the minister to withdraw that comment. The PRESIDENT: I don't believe it was a personal reflection, but, if it assists the Senate, I'm sure Minister Watt will withdraw. Senator WATT: I withdraw. Senator McKenzie: You should withdraw from the room! Senator WATT: I know it's hard to hear facts. I know it's hard to hear about governments that actually do things by the book. I know it's hard to hear about governments that invest based on business cases. Remember all those business cases that didn't exist? Senator McGrath interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Watt, please resume your seat. Senator McGrath, your incessant interjections are incredibly disorderly. Minister Watt. Senator WATT: Here's a business case that's been provided by the Liberal Party and the National Party. I don't think it can be a prop, because it's a blank piece of paper. I'm not sure that that constitutes a prop. That's the extent of the business cases that we used to see from the Liberal and the National parties when it came to investing in projects. In contrast, the Victorian government has put forward a business case, which demonstrates this is a good project, and we have every intention of getting behind it. The PRESIDENT: Senator Van, a second supplementary question?
