Senator AYRES (New South Wales—Minister for Industry and Innovation and Minister for Science) (14:56): Thank you, Senator Canavan. I'm very pleased, I have to say, with what Mr Farrow, as leader of the Australian Workers' Union—his union has very strong membership and has a rich history of collective bargaining and representing that important sector, Australian manufacturing—has had to say about the importance of that sector. And I'm really pleased with the collaborative approach that the labour movement has taken, with Mr Murphy from the Australian Manufacturing Workers' Union and Mr Farrow on a unity ticket focused on the issues that matter for that sector and their members. That's a sort of lesson in working-class discipline and focus, and it wouldn't hurt— Senator Cash: I raise a point of order in relation to relevance. The quote is in relation to skyrocketing energy prices. That's what the AWU has said. The PRESIDENT: Thank you, Senator Cash. The minister is being relevant. Minister Ayres. Senator AYRES: I just say that we welcome Mr Farrow's view, and I welcome the views put forward—particularly in relation to your home state of Queensland, Senator Canavan—by Ms MacRae, the Mayor of Mount Isa, who's been up and about here in Parliament House and on national radio and television, making the case for that important industrial community. I actually welcome people making the case for their communities in a constructive way that is focused on the facts. I've listened to Mr Farrow's view in quite some detail, as you can imagine. There are issues pressing on that sector. They are not all energy related, but some of them are energy-price related. There is a consistent stream of issues here, and I'm looking forward to the next— (Time expired) The PRESIDENT: Senator Canavan, I invite you to ask your first supplementary question.
