Mr TAYLOR (Hume—Minister for Energy and Emissions Reduction) (14:50): I've already made a comprehensive and detailed statement to the House earlier today, where I made clear that my focus in my work as the member for Hume was the technical aspects of the listing and ensuring that farmers get a fair deal under this listing. That was my focus. That remains my focus, and that is my job, because there are only two people in this parliament who have regions covered by this, and only one was ever going to advocate for the farmers across that region, and that was me. But the question whose answer I want to know is: what have those opposite got against hardworking farmers? We've seen in this place now a targeted and deliberate approach from those opposite not just to demonise them but to fail to support them when it really counts. Just last week they voted against the government's drought fund, which would help farmers when we're doing it tough. An opposition member: No, we didn't. Mr TAYLOR: This is a vital fund. The SPEAKER: The Leader of the Opposition might resume his seat for a second. The minister is now straying from the subject. Mr Albanese: From reality! The SPEAKER: No, Leader of the Opposition, you didn't have the call. Has the minister concluded? Mr TAYLOR: It was in October that they failed to. This is a vital fund. It'll grow from $3.9 billion to $5 billion over the next decade— The SPEAKER: No, I just say to the minister— Mr TAYLOR: and it is the support that farmers need. You need to provide that support as well.
