Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:19): I'll make a few points. The first point I would make is that I think an attempt to scare families in Tasmania about Christmas— Senator Duniam: You're the ones hanging out their jobs! The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Duniam! You've asked your question. Senator WONG: Senator Duniam, I have read you the part of the minister's press release which says that industry did not need to pause. Which part of that do you not understand? The PRESIDENT: Senator Duniam on a point of order? Senator Duniam: Just a clarification— Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Duniam, resume your seat. Order, particularly on my right! Senator Duniam, your point of order? Senator Duniam: I'd be happy to table the letter that says there will be a pause. The PRESIDENT: That is not a point of order, Senator Duniam. Minister Wong, please continue. Senator WONG: That's the first point I'd— Honourable senators interjecting— Senator WONG: Come on, you guys. The PRESIDENT: Order! Senator Polley, I've called you at least five times. And apologies if it wasn't you, Senator McGrath, but I think it was. An honourable senator interjecting— The PRESIDENT: I've called you on many occasions as well. The minister has the right to be heard in silence. Senator WONG: That's the first point. I don't think running around trying to scare people about their Christmases is the right thing to do. The second thing I would say is that I know that Senator Urquhart and Minister Watt went to Strahan— Senator Watt: Just last week. Didn't see you there. Senator WONG: just last week and met with members of the community and the local salmon industry. I would say to you, Senator Duniam: I guarantee people on this side have met a lot more workers in the industry than you. Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! We have moved on. Senator Duniam interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Duniam, we have moved on. I have called Senator Waters. I expect there to be respect and silence for her question.
