Senator MULHOLLAND (Queensland) (14:26): It is refreshing to see a government interested in delivering regional jobs, not just getting more jobs for the boys, in this place. That is why the Albanese government set up the National Reconstruction Fund: to drive industrial investment, deliver good blue-collar jobs and make the economy more resilient and productive. As the Alpha HPA investment in Gladstone shows, the government is delivering for regional Queensland. Why is it important for the government to back Australian industrial firms in the regions? Senator McKenzie interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator McKenzie, you may have moved down the chamber, but your interjections are just as loud. Some might think that's quite an achievement. I'm not one of them, and I'm asking you to lower your voice. Minister Ayres.
