Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:13): I'm aware of this project, and I'm also aware of the investments and production that Woodside has engaged in. We have engaged very closely, in my portfolio, with Woodside and with Ms O'Neill and her staff across a range of issues. So I'll just make the point first that it's a very important part of not just the Western Australian economy but the national economy. It is also a company who has engaged very closely with this government, and I have put on record my appreciation for that continued constructive engagement. In relation to the project in question, if I leave— Senator Whish-Wilson interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Whish-Wilson, Order! Senator Whish-Wilson interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Whish-Wilson, I've asked you to come to order. Senator Whish-Wilson interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Whish-Wilson, twice I asked you to come to order and you completely disregarded what I had to say. That is incredibly disrespectful. I've asked you to come to order. That is what I expect. Senator WONG: The second point I would make, Senator McDonald, is that you would have seen the release of the government's Future Gas Strategy and you would understand the place we believe gas has in the energy mix.

Do you want to— Senator Whish-Wilson interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Whish-Wilson, once again you are being disrespectful. If you can't sit and listen in silence, I ask that you leave the chamber. Senator WONG: As there are a set of statutory requirements the minister must engage with, I'm sure Ms Plibersek will do so. I would make the point that I'm advised that, since we have come to government, under Ms Plibersek's ministerial tenure, environmental approvals have doubled in terms of on-time approvals and have gone from 47 per cent under the Liberals to 84 per cent under us. So I would say there has been an— (Time expired) Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! I have Senator McDonald on her feet. She's entitled to ask her supplementary question in silence. Senator McDonald?
