Senator McCARTHY (Northern Territory—Minister for Indigenous Australians) (14:38): I so welcome this question on net zero, President; I really welcome this question. I have just come to the Senate from a population of over 100,000 in the north who've had to deal with a tropical cyclone way early in the piece, at speeds that are phenomenal for this time of the year for us. We know, unlike the deniers opposite— Senator Canavan interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Canavan, I have Senator Bell on his feet, but you are busy interjecting. Senator Bell. Senator Bell: Is the minister suggesting that the net zero policy is related to the cyclone? The PRESIDENT: Senator Bell, what is your point of order? Senator Bell, your question went to net zero. The minister is being directly relevant. Senator McCARTHY: I can see that the senators are very interested in net zero, but let me tell you this. Unlike the other side, we do see that there are issues impacting the climate. We do know, along with countries around the world, that we have to act. So, on this side of the Senate, we will be responsible. We will be sensible. We will try. Senator Canavan: Stop the cyclones. Senator McCARTHY: See—you laugh. Senator Canavan, I'll pick you up on that. Senator Canavan interjecting— Senator McCARTHY: No, you're a joke, Senator Canavan. (Time expired) The PRESIDENT: Senator Canavan, I've had to call you a number of times today, not just at question time. Tonight is open-ended adjournment. I look forward to seeing your name there to put in all of the comments you've been interjecting with for the day.
