Senator WATT (Queensland—Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry and Minister for Emergency Management) (14:26): Thank you for giving those of us who went to public schools a lecture about public schools—it's really appreciated! As I said, the Albanese government's commitment to public schools is obvious. That's already apparent from the work that we've been doing since we came to office. A government senator: To all schools! Senator WATT: To all schools, of course. We acknowledge that parents have the right to choose the education system that best suits their family circumstances, but we do want to make sure that all schools receive adequate funding— The PRESIDENT: Minister Watt, please resume your seat. Senator Allman-Payne? Senator Allman-Payne: I have a point of order, President. My question went very directly to a time frame, and the minister has not given a time frame in any of his answers to my questions. The PRESIDENT: It went there, broadly, but it also went to how funding is distributed. The minister is being relevant. Senator WATT: Thank you, President. Again, I know that in the Greens' magical world, which never actually involves being in government, that you can click your fingers and fix things straightaway. We see that repeatedly from the Greens. If they'd ever actually had the opportunity to be in government, they'd know that these things have to be negotiated with state and territory governments because they actually deliver the schooling system. I know that's a detail that will never trouble them, given that they'll never actually be in government and have that responsibility, but we're getting on with the job— (Time expired)
