Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:21): The minister has said that she's gone through a process consulting with communities about alternatives to water purchasing. She has said that she wants to look at all options, but it will be hard to meet targets without some purchasing. I'm advised that the minister is in the process of buying 49 gigalitres to close off another part of the plan. That process will take about nine months. Senator Davey: Nine months? Senator WONG: Nine months. You had nine years and you delivered—was it 2.7 per cent? Was that the figure? I can't recall if Senator Hanson-Young's figures are right, but you delivered a fraction of what you promised in nearly a decade, because Senator McKenzie and the Nationals have always wanted to sabotage this plan. And you know how we know that? Because you came into the Senate and tried to do exactly that, and the then government had the Libs and the Nationals voting a different way. Opposition senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order on my left! Order! Order! Senator Ayres interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Ayres! This is a question that Senator Hanson-Young is asking. I would ask both sides of the chamber to respect that the question be asked in silence and that the minister, when she responds, be heard in silence. As I just reminded Senator Davey, if you wish to make a contribution on this matter, find another time in a sitting calendar, not question time.
