Senator WATT (Queensland—Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry and Minister for Emergency Management) (14:52): Of course I'm not in a position to provide a specific time frame for the implementation of that declaration, because, as I've said, the government is now considering the recommendations of the joint standing committee that made recommendations on this matter. As I said in my answer to the previous question, we intend to consult with First Nations peoples in a deliberate and meaningful manner to help inform our response to the recommendations. Senator Thorpe: Shame! Senator WATT: I take the interjection of 'shame'. I hardly think it's shameful to consult with First Nations peoples about the implementation of these recommendations. Frankly, Senator Thorpe, I'm surprised that you think it's shameful that we would consult with First Nations peoples. I think that is exactly the right approach for us to take, and that is the way we will ensure that delivering on the recommendations of this report actually respects the rights and interests of First Nations people. I'd like to think that you would support that. The PRESIDENT: Senator Thorpe, second supplementary?
