Senator WATT (Queensland—Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry and Minister for Emergency Management) (14:36): Thank you, Senator Tyrrell. I may have to wait for some more detailed information to be provided to me so I can address the specifics of your question. I have had some helpful commentary from a couple of my Tasmanian colleagues—and that's far better than any question time brief—who have informed me that the Tasmanian government has provided not just little information but, I think, no information to support their application. Senator Duniam: That's just wrong and you took the funding away. Is the money on the table or not? Senator WATT: It would seem that there's one Tasmanian senator over the other side of the chamber who's willing to defend the Tasmanian government, but I would prefer to rely on the information I'm getting from my colleagues here. As I say, Senator Tyrrell, it is incumbent on the Tasmanian government to provide the information that's necessary to support what is a fairly substantial commitment of taxpayers' funds. If they were to do so, I presume that we would consider that application for funding. I'd obviously need to double-check that with the infrastructure minister who I'm representing here, but if I have any further information that I can provide in response to your question, I'm very happy to do so. Senator McKenzie interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator McKenzie! Senator Tyrrell, your first supplementary?
